Axial sesamoid injuries were found in 4 of 18 horses with lateral condylar fractures of the metacarpus or metatarsus. The injuries appeared as axial sesamoid fractures or progressive demineralization of the axial border of one of the sesamoids. None of the horses with axial sesamoid injuries returned to performance soundness. Axial sesamoid injury appeared to be an indication of severe fetlock trauma due to condylar fracture. Such injuries appeared to indicate a poor prognosis for return to performance soundness.
在18例掌骨或跖骨外侧髁骨折的马匹中，有4例发现了轴籽骨损伤。损伤表现为轴籽骨骨折或其中一块籽骨轴缘的进行性脱矿。所有有轴籽骨损伤的马匹均未恢复运动能力。轴籽骨损伤似乎是髁骨折导致严重球节创伤的一个指征。此类损伤似乎表明恢复运动能力的预后不良。
