“…Normal anatomy of the carpal region and its related soft tissue structures were described in previous studies for horses (Tnibar et al, 1993;Whitcomb, 2008Whitcomb, , 2014El-Bably and Abdelgalil, 2018), cattle (Kofler, 2000;Al-akraa et al, 2015), camels (Kassab, 2008;Soroori et al, 2011), dogs (Kramer et al, 1997), and sheep (Macrae and Scott, 1999;Sideri and Tsioli, 2017), while the present study gives a complete description of the bones, tendons, ligaments, and other soft tissue structures of the carpal region of goats during their course over the carpus.…”

“…In the current work, a 9 MHz linear transducer provided better resolution and imaging for all structures of the carpal region that nearly used for ultrasonography of the carpal joint in other different animals including horses (Tnibar et al, 1993;El-Bably and Abdelgalil, 2018), cattle (Al-akraa et al, 2015), camel (Kassab, 2008;Soroori et al, 2011), dogs (Kramer et al, 1997) and sheep (Macrae and Scott, 1999;Sideri and Tsioli, 2017). The transverse scanning of the extensor tendons has better advantage than longitudinal scanning as they were side by side at their course and could not be distinguished longitudinally.…”

“…Ultrasonography is a reliable, rapid, safe, useful, practical diagnostic tool for imaging and evaluating soft tissues and musculoskeletal system and providing valuable information regarding different disorders (Sideri and Tsioli, 2017). Normal ultrasonographic anatomy of the carpal joint of equine (Genovese et al, 1986;Tnibar et al, 1993;Whitecomb, 2014;El-Bably and Abdelgalil, 2018), dogs (Kramer et al, 1997), cattle (Kofler et al, 2014;Al-akraa et al, 2015), camel (Kassab, 2008;Soroori et al, 2011) and sheep (Macrae and Scott, 1999;Sideri and Tsioli, 2017) were studied in details. However, for goats, only ultrasonogra-To the author knowledge, very limited studies described normal anatomy of musculoskeletal system in caprine species.…”

| Normal diagnostic anatomy of the carpal region of most farm animals was studied, but that of caprine has not been studied in details. Therefore the aim of the present study was to investigate the normal radiography, computed tomography (CT) and ultrasonography of the goat carpal region compared to the dissecting anatomy. Two thoracic limbs were used for carpal bones preparation and examination. In addition, four fresh thoracic limbs separated from the shoulder joint were used for normal anatomical study and latex injection of the joint sacs after CT scanning. The anatomical study was compared with the normal radiography, CT and ultrasonography of the carpal region of five clinically selected healthy goats. Radiographic and CT images revealed normal bone anatomy of the carpal joint, while ultrasonographic imaging revealed ability to visualize tendinous structures of the regional musculature such as those of extensor and flexor muscles as well as joint capsule and collateral ligaments. Therefore, results of the present study were indicated good correlations of radiography, CT and ultrasonography of the goat carpal region with the normal anatomical dissection and provided suitable data for caprine practioners and surgeons as well as educational purposes.Citation | Moselhy AA, Abd El Raouf M, Abdelaal AM (2019).

Ultrasound assessment of sheep stifle joint undergone lipopolysaccharide-induced synovitis

Synovitis can be induced in animals through the application of bacterial wall lipopolysaccharide and has similar signs to naturally-occurring synovitis. Several studies have been using the sheep species as an experimental model to understand osteoarticular diseases of the femorotibiopatellar (FTP) joint in humans. There are echographic studies on the standardization of normality of the femorotibiopatellar joint in sheep. However, there is a gap in the literature for changes such as acute synovitis. The objective was to serially describe the sonographic aspects of the synovitis process induced by intra-articular infiltration of Escherichia coli (E. coli) lipopolysaccharide in the femorotibiopatellar joint of sheep. Twelve healthy crossbred sheep (Santa Inês x Dorper) were used. Induction of synovitis was performed only in the right FTP joints, which were serially evaluated using ultrasound examination at baseline moment (M0) and 12 (M12), 24 (M24), 48 (M48), 72 (M72), and 120 (M120) hours after lipopolysaccharide infiltration for synovitis induction. Intra-articular application of E. coli lipopolysaccharide resulted in one or more echographic signs of synovitis (increased synovial fluid volume, folding of the synovial membrane, and cellularity in the joint cavity), which were identified early, 12 hours after inoculation, and regressed over the evaluated times (p=0.0001) until disappearing after 120 hours of inoculation.
