hoof
what bones make up the cannon (3)
metacarpus II, III and IV
what bones make up the fetlock (3)
metacarpus III
phalanx I
proximal sesamoid bones
what bones make up the pastern (2)
phalanx I
phalanx II
what bones make up the hoof (3)
phalanx II
phalanx III
distal sesamoid
carpus =
knee
1st, 2nd and 3rd carpals in cattle
1st is absent
2 and 3 are fused
great metacarpus in cattle composed of what 2 bones
metacarpus III and IV
great metacarpus in horses composed of what bone
metacarpus III
proximal vs distal sesamoid bones: number per digit
1 distal per digit
2 proximal per digit
of the 5 external region of manus in horses, which one does not contain a joint
cannon
4 knee joints: horse
radiocarpal
ulnocarpal
intercarpal
carpometacarpal
fetlock joint name
metacarphophalangeal
pastern joint name
proximal interphalangeal
between phalanx 1 and 2
hoof joint name
distal interphalangeal
between phalanx 2 and 3
3 ligaments in horse knee
collateral ligaments
intercarpal ligaments
accessory ligaments
importance of collateral ligaments: horse
prevent joint from bending side to side
importance of intercarpal ligaments: horse
keep carpal bones together
only allow spaces between bones at the dorsal side (for flexion of limb)
importance of accessory ligaments: horse
keep accessory bone in place
ligaments (one type) in fetlock, pastern and hoof: horse
collateral articular ligaments
importance/location of collateral articular ligaments: horse
lateral and medial
prevent joint from bending from side to side
keep bones together
ligaments in fetlock, pastern and hoof: cattle (2)
abaxial articular ligaments
axial articular ligaments
4 tendons in horse
common digital extensor
lateral digital extensor
superficial digital flexor
deep digital flexor
4 ligaments in cannon: horse
carpal check
suspensory
annular
sesamoid
