18 Ιουν 2016 · Functional characteristics of tendon. Tendon and ligaments transmit forces to move the equine skeleton, or for support of the distal limb in the case of the digital flexor tendons, or, as ligaments, to maintain joint integrity. At heel strike, the loads rise the quickest in the soft tissue structures primarily supporting the metacarpo ...
18 Οκτ 2021 · The tremendous weight-bearing forces transmitted through the 4 digits of the horse are accommodated within physiologic norms because of the highly refined and specialized gross, microscopic, and functional anatomy of the equine foot.
8 Ιουλ 2016 · Tendons and ligaments. Horses can attain high speeds largely because specific tendons and ligaments store and return elastic strain energy as the foot is set down and then lifted. This, effectively, halves muscular work during galloping.
5 Ιαν 2021 · The tendons and ligaments act as support structures for the bones, as there are no muscles in the digit. “The navicular bone allows the deep digital flexor tendon to maintain a constant angle where it inserts on the distal phalanx,” Dr. O’Grady points out.
Tendons and ligaments have a variety of functions: they transmit forces to move the equine skeleton, they provide support of the distal limb in the case of the digital flexor tendons, or, as ligaments, they maintain joint alignment and integrity.
11 Σεπ 2019 · The specialized and fascinating anatomy and function of the reciprocating systems, which aid locomotion in horses, is crucially important for farriers. I want to begin by clearing up some confusions about anatomical terminology, as well as make clear my approach to teaching horse anatomy.
Suspensory ligament - in horses, the interosseous medius muscle has atrophied and functions as a ligament. It consists of muscular bundles, tendinous bundles and fat bundles. The flexor tendons slide over the suspensory ligament.
