Abstract
The deformities observed in 2 Clydesdale foals were described. Both had abnormal joint positions in the forelimbs and discrepancies in the symmetry of the vertebral column. The changes were mild in 1 case but extreme in the other where it was accompanied by torticollis, scoliosis and vertebral fusion. A comparison was made with deformities described in the contracted foal syndrome and some of the developmental implications were discussed.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
