Malignant edema in horses.
Malignant edema (clostridial myositis) was diagnosed in 9 horses with signs of illness that included fever, depression, painful muscular swellings, and toxemia. The infection followed intramuscular injections in 8 horses and developed in a puncture wound in 1 horse. Treatment consisted of surgical fenestration of the involved muscle, high doses of penicillin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents and analgesics, and supportive fluid therapy. Five horses recovered and 4 died. Those that died had advanced signs of the disease at admission.

Radial agenesis and ulnar hypoplasia in two caprine kids.
Two of three caprine triplets caused dystocia due to malformed forelimbs. This malformity was caused by radial agenesis and ulnar hypoplasia. Other congenital anomalies were also present. The influence of diet versus genetics could not be ascertained. Bilateral ulnar fractures in one kid revealed histologically rounded fracture ends with prominent periosteal new bone formation.
