Question 1 of 28👑 VIP
A 6-year-old intact male Thoroughbred presents with a 2-day history of intermittent right forelimb lameness that worsens after exercise. On flexion tests, the distal limb flexion test produces a marked increase in lameness after 60 seconds. Hoof testers reveal no sensitivity over the sole or frog. Perineural anesthesia of the palmar digital nerves abolishes the lameness completely. Radiographs of the foot show a 5 mm circular radiolucent defect in the navicular bone with sclerosis of the flexor cortex. Which of the following is the MOST accurate description of this horse's condition?
