In chondro-osseous disease in the foal there are three main categories of lesions: (i) synovitis alone (type S), (ii) synovitis accompanied by osteomyelitis originating in the epiphysis of the juxta-articular bone (type E) and (iii) synovitis accompanied by osteomyelitis originating directly adjacent to the physis of the juxta-articular bone (type P). Observations made in studies of the immature radius and metacarpus provide an explanation for the apparent predisposition of some joints for this disease. Relevant clinical and therapeutical aspects are discussed.
在马驹的软骨-骨疾病中,有三类主要病变:(i) 单纯滑膜炎(S型),(ii) 伴有起源于近关节骨骨骺的骨髓炎的滑膜炎(E型),以及(iii) 伴有起源于近关节骨生长板直接相邻处的骨髓炎的滑膜炎(P型)。对未成熟桡骨和掌骨的研究观察结果为某些关节对此疾病的明显易感性提供了解释。文中还讨论了相关的临床和治疗方面的问题。
