  • Title: Sagittal fractures of the third carpal bone in horses: 12 cases (1977-1985).
    Author: Fischer AT, Stover SM.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1987 Jul 01; 191(1):106-8. PubMed ID: 3610774.
    Abstract:
    Third carpal sagittal fractures were found to be related to racing injuries in 10 of 12 horses. These fractures occurred most commonly on the medial aspect of the bone. A dorsoproximal-dorsodistal view of the carpus was required to visualize the fracture in all cases. Healing of the fracture required periods of rest of up to one year. Conservative management of these fractures resulted in return to function in 7 of 12 horses.
