Abstract
Summary: Because the majority of foals afflicted with “joint ill” also have infectious (poly)osteomyelitis, previous definitions no longer suffice. In this article the different syndromes are described and classified and the pathogenesis, prognosis and treatment of the disease complex are discussed.Résumé: Puisque la majorité des foals souffrant “d'arthrite” ont aussi des (poly) ostéomyélites, les définitions jusqu'a à présent retenues ne conviennent plus. Dans cet article, les différents syndromes sont décrits, classés, et la pathogénèse, le pronostic et le traitement du complexe morbide sont discutés.Zusammenfassung: Weil die Mehrheit aller Fohlen mit “joint ill” (annähernd gleich “Fohlenlähme”) auch an infektiöser (Poly)Osteomyelitis leidet, lassen sich die früheren Definitionen nicht länger verwenden. In diesem Artikel werden die verschiedenen Syndrome beschrieben und klassiert. Die Pathogenese, die Prognose und die Behandlung des Krankheitskomplexes werden diskutiert.Keywords
