Gait analysis in a cat with scapular luxation and contralateral forelimb amputation
(2013-10-01)
This report describes the use of a pressure-sensitive walkway to evaluate an uncommon case of a cat with dorsal luxation of the left scapula and an amputated right forelimb. The findings suggest that limb amputation induced ...

The distal forelimb musculature in aquatic and terrestrial turtles: phylogeny or enviromental constraint?
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2008-12)
We compared the muscular anatomy of the distal front limb in terrestrial and aquatic chelonians to test whether observed differences between the two groups are associated with their divergent lifestyles and locomotor modes. ...
Collateral cartilage ossification of the distal phalanx in the Brazilian Jumper horse
(2002-09-01)
Collateral cartilage ossification of the distal phalanx in the Brazilian Jumper horse is a common finding. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and the degree of ossification of the collateral cartilages ...
Muscular reconstruction and functional morphology of the forelimb of Early Miocene sloths (Xenarthra, Folivora) of Patagonia
(Wiley, 2013-02)
Early Miocene sloths are represented by a diversity of forms ranging from 38 to 95 kg, being registered mainly from Santacrucian Age deposits in southern-most shores of Patagonia, Argentina. Their postcranial skeleton ...
Pectoral girdle and forelimb variation in extant Crocodylia: the coracoid–humerus pair as an evolutionary module
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2013)
To date, all statements about evolutionary morphological transformation in Crocodylia have essentially been based on qualitative observations. In the present study, we assessed the morphological variation and covariation ...
Skeletal morphology of the forelimb of Myrmecophaga Tridactyla
(2015-12-01)
Anteater forelimbs are morphologically adapted to obtain food and to provide defense and locomotion. Four species are known, but there are few anatomical studies presenting the morphologic features of each species. The aim ...
Gross anatomy and surgical approach to the humeral shaft in giant anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla)
(2016-09-01)
Anteater forelimbs are distinguished morphologically from domestic animals, especially due to their unique movement and their natural habits. A knowledge of the pectoral limb anatomy and the proper surgical approach are ...

(Amer Assoc Zoo Veterinarians, 2016-09-01)
Anteater forelimbs are distinguished morphologically from domestic animals, especially due to their unique movement and their natural habits. A knowledge of the pectoral limb anatomy and the proper surgical approach are ...
