BIOMECHANICS PATHOLOGY OF THE EQUINE BACK PELVIS

摘要

Back pain and altered function are considered significant sources of poor performance across multiple equine disciplines. The most consistent clinical feature of chronic sacroiliac joint injury is a prolonged, nonprogressive history of poor performance that includes back stiffness, resisting jumps, and lack impulsion from one or both hind limbs. Tuber sacrale height asymmetries are common in horses without documented sacroiliac joint injuries.
