Navicular syndrome
Navicular disease
Pain in the back of the foot

So many names for such a worrying issue in our horses.

In this horse, I found the deep digital flexor tendon (DDFT) quite damaged with yellow brittle hard tissue where it should glide over the navicular bone. I also found adhesions (strands of tissue) between the DDFT and navicular bone.

The navicular bone was also damaged with yellow colour to the fibrocartilage surface where it meets the DDFT plus pitting and a rough feel.

Bet that hurt.

Horse was lame. I’ll be posting a video of this dissection with more detailed information, to my Patreon page.
