  • Title: Navicular bone disease: a comparative histomorphometric study.
    Author: Ostblom L, Lund C, Melsen F.
    Journal: Equine Vet J; 1989 Nov; 21(6):431-3. PubMed ID: 2591358.
    Abstract:
    Twelve horses suffering from navicular bone disease were examined in a prospective, controlled histomorphometric study for six months. The objective was to compare the histology of navicular bones from untreated animals to those treated with the egg-bar shoeing technique. These data were compared to similar sections from three normal animals. The current investigation provided quantitative support to previous findings concerning clinical improvement. Detailed histology, changes in bone morphometry and pathophysiological reactions are discussed.
