  • Title: Navicular disease in the horse. A microangiographic investigation.
    Author: Svalastoga E.
    Journal: Nord Vet Med; 1983 Mar; 35(3):131-9. PubMed ID: 6878033.
    Abstract:
    Microangiographical investigations of the navicular bone in horses with navicular disease show, compared to similar investigations of normal navicular bones, that, in general, the vascular pattern is preserved but the vessels are dilated with "pooling" of the contrast medium subchondrally under facies flexoria. Similar changes may be observed in cases of human arthrosis. The present investigation therefore supports the view that navicular disease is a disease which resembles arthrosis.
