  • Title: Subchondral cystic lesions (osteochondrosis) of the femoral heads in a horse.
    Author: Nixon AJ, Adams RM, Teigland MB.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1988 Feb 01; 192(3):360-2. PubMed ID: 3356573.
    Abstract:
    Bilateral subchondral cystic lesions of the femoral head in a horse resulted in lameness. The lesions had resulted in degenerative disease in the left coxofemoral joint. The cause of lameness was confirmed by use of intra-articular anesthesia, joint fluid analysis, and radiography. Subchondral cystic lesions involving the femoral head should be considered in the differential diagnosis of equine lameness localized in the upper portion of the hind limb.
