Panosteitis in a cocker spaniel dog

A 12-month-old, desexed female Cocker Spaniel had intermittent bilateral foreleg lameness which was due to panosteitis of the radius and ulna. The disease was in the active 'middle' state. Endosteal and periosteal new bone formation was demonstrated by histological examination and accounted for the diffuse osteosclerotic appearance of the radial and ulnar diaphyses seen on radiographs.
