Abstract For This Research And Paper
Objective: To characterize the microscopic anatomy of the laminar interface at the distal margin of the distal phalanx in equine forefeet with the presence of a crena marginis solearis.
Sample population: Six equine cadaver forefeet with radiographic evidence of a crena marginis solearis and two equine cadaver forefeet without radiographic evidence of a crena marginis solearis.
Methods: Cadaver forefoot specimens were selected by screening for the presence (six) or absence (two) of a crena marginis solearis using radiography. Selected specimens were evaluated grossly for the presence of abnormalities of the hoof wall, white line, and sole in the toe region.
