    Curious about the complexities of equine neck pain? In this episode of Veterinary Vertex, we discuss neck pain in horses caused by the transposition of the ventral lamina from C6 to C7. Join us as we speak with Dr. Yvette Nout-Lomas, who delves into her team’s groundbreaking research. You'll uncover how their interest sparked from real-life clinical cases and led to discovering a higher prevalence of neck pain in warmblood horses with TC67, yet surprisingly no significant connection to lameness or neurologic signs. Yvette also shares the limitations of their retrospective study and the critical need for proper diagnosis to enhance the welfare of our equine friends.

    In our enlightening discussion, Yvette helps us untangle the often-misunderstood terminology around equine cervical vertebral anatomy, particularly differentiating between morphological variations and malformations. We stress the importance of precise language to better educate both clients and veterinarians. The episode also underscores the necessity for prospective research and well-matched control groups to fully comprehend the health impacts of TC67. Moreover, we delve into the vital role of advanced training and mentorship in propelling equine veterinary research forward. Tune in for a thoughtful exploration of neck pain in horses and its broader implications on their health and behavior.
