10.08.96 dr orsini mentioned that grade ranges and averages will be posted after the written exam is graded - possibly by fri, def by monday. next two weeks: no clinical correlation, even though they are on the schedules, because there's nothing that's really that applicable. we'll get some extra ones later. we'll have chalk talks instead. tomorrow dr dodson will talk about dissection of the heart. thursday we'll talk hip muscles. hoof: smallwood talks about development of the hoof. don't bother with that right now. just look at the features of the dry hoof. look at the bones and the sesamoid bones - they're big deals in the horse. navicular bone has lots of clinical implications. when you go through this dissection now, just - if you're going through a muscle, and no notation says anything different, assume it's just like a dog. always assume it's doglike unless told differently. no limb removal today. also note that smallwood has lots of radiographs in it. it's a good book to go back to when you take radiology, but you don't need to look at them right now. most of the goat stuff is the same as the ox stuff. if there's anything major we need to know it will be presented in the chalk talk. there are some little differences in omotransversarius - in dog, from spine of scapula to cranial region of neck. in horse and ruminant, this isn't a significant muscle. it is fused w/brachiocephalicus and until recently was considered part of it. jugular vein lies in jugular furrow...brachiocephalicus (cleidomastoideus portion) dorsally, and sternocephalicus ventrally. there is a fibrous clavicular intersection. the goat has a cleidooccipitalis portion of brachiocephalicus, horse doesn't. sternocephalicus- called sternomandibularis in horse- runs from sternum to the mandible. check out the tendon of insertion. lingual facial vein drains ventral aspect of head into jugular. Viborg's triangle: window into neck region. formed by caudally -tendon of insertion of sternomandibularis, ventrally lingual facial vein, and cranially the mandible nuchal ligament very large. in dog, it went to axis, but in large animals, it goes all the way to the base of the skull. cranially it's the funiculus part, which attaches at base of skull and at the 1st thoracic vert. there's a laminar part as well, that inserts on the spines of the cervical vertebrae all along. also, continues caudally as suprascapular ligament. pectoral muscles: superficial in dog had descending part and transverse part deep in dog just had ascending part. in large animal, the deep pectorals also have a subclavius part. so, the superficial pecs are pretty similar to the dog's, but the deep has this extra part in goat and horse (not ox). subclavius is right in front of scapula. "fairly honking muscle". note that in horse, many muscles that in dog had pelvic or scapular level of origin now have vertebral origin.
