Supporting limb laminitis poses a threat to all horses suffering from severe unilateral lameness. Despite its devastating effects, relatively little is known about the precise pathologic processes that lead to its development. This article reviews the potential mechanisms of supporting limb laminitis, and the authors present some preliminary data based on advanced imaging and computer-based modeling techniques aimed at further elucidating the etiology of this unique form of laminitis. Gaining a better understanding of the pathologic processes that lead to supporting limb laminitis is essential to enable the development of appropriate countermeasures to safeguard horses at risk of the disease.
对侧肢蹄叶炎对所有患有严重单侧跛行的马匹构成威胁。尽管其后果严重，但对于导致其发生的确切病理过程却知之甚少。本文回顾了对侧肢蹄叶炎的潜在机制，作者基于先进的成像和计算机建模技术提供了一些初步数据，旨在进一步阐明这种独特形式蹄叶炎的病因。更好地了解导致对侧肢蹄叶炎的病理过程对于制定适当的应对措施以保护有患病风险的马匹至关重要。
