Multiple keratomas in an equine foot.
A 19-year-old, Arabian gelding was presented for left hindlimb lameness and deviation of the hoof wall. Radiographs revealed a semicircular, radiolucent area in the lateral edge of the distal phalanx. Three distinct keratomas were successfully removed following hoof wall resection.
