    Area of Science:

    • Orthopaedic Surgery
    • Equine Medicine
    • Developmental Biology

    Background:

    • Local disorders of bone growth are significant orthopaedic issues in foals.
    • Accurate diagnosis and prognosis are crucial for effective management.
    • Understanding the applied anatomy of the equine growth plate is fundamental.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the importance of recognizing local bone growth disorders in foals.
    • To provide essential knowledge of growth plate anatomy for understanding these conditions.
    • To discuss epiphyseal separation and angular deformity in foals, covering diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of applied anatomy of the equine growth plate.
    • Discussion of diagnostic approaches for foal bone growth disorders.

  • Analysis of treatment and prognostic factors for epiphyseal separation and angular deformity.
  • Main Results:

    • Recognition of local bone growth disorders is essential for appropriate intervention.
    • Applied anatomy of the growth plate provides a basis for understanding these conditions.
    • Diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment strategies for epiphyseal separation and angular deformity were considered.

    Conclusions:

    • Early identification and understanding of growth plate dynamics are critical for managing orthopaedic problems in foals.
    • Effective management of epiphyseal separation and angular deformity requires knowledge of applied anatomy and tailored treatment plans.
