摘要：

Two horses with lameness due to talocalcaneal osteoarthritis that failed to respond to conservative management were treated by talocalcaneal orthrodesis using cortex screws placed in lag fashion. The affected joint of one horse was arthrodesed by compressing and stabilizing the medial facet of the joint with three screws. In the second horse, the medial and lateral facets of the affected tolocalconeal joint were each compressed and stabilized with two screws. The lameness of both horses improved markedly following surgery.
