Chronic stifle discomfort in young horses is often tied to early developmental changes. Subtle issues in bone formation that may not be visible from the surface. This is where imaging becomes essential. With light sedation to reduce stress and movement, we evaluate the patellar ligaments, femoral trochlear ridges, and surrounding structures for signs of incomplete bone development, inflammation, or congenital defects. Identifying whether we’re looking at structural abnormalities or simply inflam

Thanks for the comments! This is a locking stifle, also called upward fixation of the patella, or delayed patellar release. Did you know that horses can lock their hind legs in extension? When the hind leg is locked, they don't have to use muscular effort to keep the joints extended. This is how they can sleep standing up so that they are ready to run off if a predator approached them (they would be more vulnerable in the wild while laying down). It's all good until the lock engages at the wrong

Upwards fixation of the patella, otherwise known as locking stifles is a problem some horses suffer from,it causes the hind leg to lock and effects normal movement, our vet Austin Fanning has performed a few of his corrective procedures here at IHWT with great success. Sandys problem was bilateral so she had to have two procedures performed on her,we are very lucky to be able to have these things performed on site and as you can see Sandy is doing really well ❤️🐴❤️ Happy Wednesday ❤️ If you wou

What Are “Sticky Stifles”? Also known as upward fixation of the patella, this condition involves the horse’s kneecap momentarily sticking or catching, which may result in an uneven gait, tripping, or the leg appearing briefly “locked” in extension. What Might Contribute to Stifle Catching: 1. Muscle Weakness – Underdeveloped hindquarters or core may limit joint support. 2. Conformation – Horses with straighter hind limb angles may be structurally predisposed. 3. Growth and Development – Young ho

This is a good clear example of the hindlimb condition called upward fixation of the patella, also known as stifle lock. Note the leg is locked stiff and straight until it unlocks and the horse can flex the joint again. We did the relatively quick and non-invasive surgery on this horse today and we should expect to see improvement over the coming weeks. Note that this is very commonly but erroneously called stringhalt, which is a hyperflexion/exaggerated lift of the hind limb caused almost exclu
