Scapular displacement due to bilateral rupture of the serratus ventralis muscles ("flying scapula") occurred in four heifers from a large beef herd. Two of the four affected animals were necropsied. Additional animals on the farm developed intermittent lameness when enclosed on certain pastures. The lameness and scapular displacement were attributed to selenium deficiency in the feed and pasture environment. This is the first account of "flying scapula" in the United States.
在一个大型肉牛群中，有四头小母牛因腹侧锯肌双侧断裂出现肩胛移位（“飞肩”）。对这四头受影响的动物中的两头进行了尸检。该农场的其他动物在圈养于某些牧场时出现间歇性跛行。跛行和肩胛移位被归因于饲料和牧场环境中的硒缺乏。这是美国首次报道“飞肩”病例。
