calcification deposit in suspensory ligament

[Birker2020]

My horse has a calcium deposit in his suspensory ligament.

Has anyone had this with their horse?

What was the outcome (good or bad) please?

Thank you.

I think this is what mine has. It was found after a bone scan which showed hocks as a hot spot. x rays showed extra bone/calcification at the insertion of the SL by the hock. Was worse on one leg. Horse wasn't lame ( bone scan for back problem resistance to go forwards) blocking of SL made no difference so it was decided to leave it alone and see what happened. that was just over 18months ago and touch wood no problems yet
