A fracture of the caudal portion of the greater tubercle of the humerus was diagnosed in a 16-month-old Thoroughbred filly. Initially the fracture caused severe lameness. Radiography of the affected shoulder revealed the fracture fragment to be extra-articular, with a surrounding bony callus and no evidence of joint disease. After 5 weeks rest in a stall and 11 months at pasture, the filly was trained and raced without lameness.
一匹16个月大的纯种雌马被诊断出肱骨大结节尾部骨折。最初，骨折导致严重跛行。对患侧肩部进行放射检查发现骨折碎片位于关节外，周围有骨痂形成，且无关节疾病迹象。在厩舍休息5周并在牧场休养11个月后，这匹雌马接受训练并参赛，未出现跛行。
