Abstract:
A case of bursitis calcarea in a Border Collie showing lameness without acute pain in the right hind leg, is reported. A diagnosis of bursitis calcarea was made on radiological examination. Treatment consisted of anti-inflammatory drugs and rest as far as it was practically possible. After initial improvement, full recovery only took place 2 months after treatment had commenced. Bursitis calcarea is a rare disease which seldom shows clinical signs. As far as could be ascertained, this is the first report of the condition in South Africa.
