    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Pathology
    • Equine Orthopedics

    Background:

    • Osteochondrosis is a developmental orthopedic disease affecting young horses.
    • Acetabular osteochondrosis is infrequently documented in equine literature.

    Observation:

    • A 3-week-old Arabian filly presented with chronic coxofemoral lameness.
    • Clinical signs suggested significant hip joint pathology.

    Findings:

    • Lesions consistent with osteochondrosis dissecans were identified in the acetabulum.
    • Pathologic analysis confirmed the diagnosis and characterized the lesions.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering acetabular osteochondrosis in young foals with hip lameness.
    • Early diagnosis and understanding of this condition are crucial for effective management in equine patients.
