  • Title: Physeal Fractures in Foals.
    Author: Levine DG, Aitken MR.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Equine Pract; 2017 Aug; 33(2):417-430. PubMed ID: 28687098.
    Abstract:
    Physeal fractures are common musculoskeletal injuries in foals and should be included as a differential diagnosis for the lame or nonweightbearing foal. Careful evaluation of the patient, including precise radiographic assessment, is paramount in determining the options for treatment. Prognosis mostly depends on the patient's age, weight, and fracture location and configuration.
