Limb Anomalies - Image 8

A “windswept” foal. Foals like this appear to have adapted to the curvature of the uterus. There is a valgus deformity of the left forelimb (1) and a varus deformity of the right forelimb (2). Courtesy of Dr. Christie Ward. [Note: varus = oblique limb displacement toward midline; valgus = displacement away from the midline.]
