Suspensory injuries of the fetlock were studied ultrasonographically in 25 mixed breed draught horses. Sesamoiditis, fractures of the proximal sesamoid bones and proximal phalanx were the common radiography findings in the hard tissues. Ultrasonographic of soft tissues of the suspensory apparatus in the present study here showed multiple complicated structural injuries. The suspensory branches showed desmitis, increased in size, dystrophic calcification, tearing, and fibrous echo dense material between the branch and the skin. Desmitis of the distal sesamoidean ligament had been seen associated with fractures of proximal phalanx and fractures of the sesamoid bones.
