... The fovea on the head of sheep femur (Figure 1 D1') is much smaller compared to roe deer. Small fovea was also described by Rajani et al. (2012) in samba deer, Crisan et al. (2009) in camels and Demircioglu and Ince (2020) in gazelles. The neck of the femur is prominent in both sheep and deer, but in sheep (Figure 1 B2, D2) it is short and wide and in roe deer long and narrow. ...

Forensic analysis of the osteological characteristics of femurs of roe deer and sheep was performed by the method of comparison. In this study, 6 femurs of adult roe deer and 6 femurs of adult sheep were used. After the soft tissue remains were removed from the bones, they were boiled and then bleached in 3% the solution of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). After bleaching, the bones were air-dried and then photographed. The roe deer femur is on average 2.3 cm longer than the same bone in sheep. The body of roe deer femur is strongly curved cranially, and in sheep it is slightly curved. The caudal surface of the femur body in sheep has two rough lines that were absent in the middle third in roe deer femoral body. The supracondylar fossa in roe deer is deep and in sheep shallow. The deep fovea in roe deer and shallow fovea in sheep were observed on the middle of the femoral head. The greater trochanter in roe deer femur is higher and narrower in comparison to sheep. The lateral surface of the greater trochanter of femur in roe deer is rough and in sheep it is smooth. The trochanteric fossa in roe deer femur is narrow and deep, while in sheep it is wide and shallow. On the distal extremity of the femur, the trochlea in roe deer is shallower than in sheep. On the lateral condyle, the popliteal muscular fossa in roe deer is narrow and shallow and in sheep wide and deep. The roe deer patella is on average 0.3 cm shorter and 0.4 cm narrower compared to sheep.
... Similarly, in former studies, the trochanter major was also found to be at the same level as the caput femoris in feral pigs (Sus scrofa) (Karan, 2012a), sambar deer (Cervus unicolor) (Rajani et al., 2012), spotted deer (Axis axis) (Islam et al., 2018) and small ruminants (Dyce, Sack, & Wensing, 2018). However, it was revealed that it was higher than the caput femoris in Indian muntjacs (Muntiacus muntjac) (Rajani et al., 2013), cows and mares (Crişan, Damian, Dezdrobitu, & Mateaş, 2009), and large ruminants (Bahadır & ve Yıldız, 2016). ...
... But, in camels (Crişan et al., 2009) In the study, it was seen that the tuberculum intercondylare lateralis and tuberculum intercondylare medialis, which were situated between the tibia's condylus, were at the same level. ...
... However, Rajani et al. (2013) revealed that, in Indian muntjacs (Muntiacus muntjac), the tuberculum intercondylare mediale was longer than the tuberculum intercondylare laterale. Likewise, Crişan et al. (2009) had a similar finding in camels and cows. On the other hand, Karan (2012a) suggested that the tuberculum intercondylare laterale was higher than the tuberculum intercondylare mediale in feral pigs. ...

The objective of the present study was to model in 3D the detailed morphometric features of the thoracic and pelvic limb bones of the gazelle (Gazella subgutturosa), whose natural habitat is only in the Sanliurfa province, by using multidetector computerized tomography (MDCT) images. Materials from 14 (7 male and 7 female) dead gazelles were collected from the Harran University Veterinary Medicine Faculty clinics during or after treatment. MDCT images of the gazelles were taken and saved as DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) files. MIMICS 20.1 software was used to generate a 3D reconstruction of the data, and morphological and morphometrical evaluation was performed. In respect of morphological features, the combined metacarpus (Mc) III and metacarpus Mc IV were the main weight‐bearing metacarpal bone, while Mc II and Mc V were rudimentary. On the femur, the lateral condyle was bigger than the medial condyle at the caudodistal end and the medial wing of the trochlea femoris was larger than the lateral. As with the thoracic limb, the combined metatarsus (Mt) III and metatarsus Mt IV were the main weight‐bearing metacarpal bone and they displayed a synostosis structure. There was no secondary metatarsus in the gazelles’ pelvic limb. Based on digital measurements, the tibia was the longest bone of the gazelles’ skeletal system, and there was a statistically significant sexual dimorphism throughout the skeleton at the levels of p < .05, p < .01 and p < .001. As a result, the present study's findings are useful as reference data for further studies on anatomy, surgery and archaezoology, while also being useful for classifying species and for forensic sciences.

... In Iran, the population of this species is disjointed. This species is perhaps very rare in Afghanistan (Mallon and Kingswood, 2001). Among the wild ungulates of Pakistan, only the habitat and feeding ecology of wild Urail in Pakistan were studied in detail by Din et al. (2018). ...
... The normal gross anatomic and radiographic appearance of the chinkara tarsus have not yet been described. The tarsus of chinkara comprised of five bones both grossly and radiographically as reported in ruminants (Raghavan, 1964), in cattle (Melania et al., 2009, in Indian muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak) (Rajani et al., 2013), in marsh deer (Blastocerus dichotomus) (Bruno et al., 2015) and in blue bull (Boselaphus tragocamelus) (Bharti, 2016), while, in contrast to this study, the findings of (Melania et al., 2009) in camelids reported six tarsus bones. Miller et al. (2013) identified seven tarsal bones in dogs while in pigs and carnivores by Akers and Denbow, (2008). ...
... Flexion and extension of the joint during arthroscopy several times was important to allow complete visual examination of all joint structures; however examination of the lateral joint angle was easier than the medial one. This could be attributed to the greater size of the medial condyle of the large metacarpus versus the lateral one, which restricted the movement of the arthroscope inside the articular cavity (4,22). Movement of the joint in flexion and extension was difficult in the arthroscopic examination of the living animals study due to the heavy weight of the animal. ...

To describe a technique for arthroscopy of the fetlock joint of the dromedary camel, and the problems that could occur during and after arthroscopy. Seven animals (4 cadaveric limbs and 3 living camels) were used in this study. Two dorsal arthroscopic portals (lateral and medial) and one palmaro-lateral portal were used. Distension of the joint capsule was effected by injecting Ringer´s lactate solution into the joint cavity. Landmarks for the dorsal arthroscopic portals were located at the centre of the groove bounded by the lateral branch of the suspensory ligament and the large metacarpus at a point 1 cm proximal to the joint. The palmaro-lateral portal was located in a triangular area between the branch of the suspensory ligament, the large metacarpus, and the sesamoid bone, with insertion of the arthroscope in a 45° joint flexion angle. Arthroscopy of the fetlock joint via the dorso-lateral portal allowed examination of the distal end of the large metacarpus and the proximal end of the first phalanx of the fourth digit. Arthroscopy via a dorso-medial approach allowed examination of the distal end of the large metacarpus and the proximal end of the first phalanx and the distal end of the third digit. The palmaro-lateral portal allowed examination of the sesamoid bones, the synovial membrane, and the synovial villi. The main complications recorded during arthroscopy were iatrogenic articular surface injury as well as obstruction of vision with the synovial villi. This is the first work to describe the normal arthroscopy of the fetlock joint in the dromedary camel, the arthroscopic portals, and the complications that could occur during and after arthroscopy. Further studies are required for diagnosis of pathological changes in the fetlock joint of the dromedary camel and for arthroscopy of other joints in the dromedary camel.

Bu çalışma büyük ruminantia’da fibula’nın morfolojik yapısının detaylı olarak incelenmesi amacıyla yapıldı. Çalışmada toplamda 24 adet ossa cruris kullanıldı. Kemiklerin morfometrik ölçümlerini elde etmek için Mitutoya Dijital Kumpas’tan (Mitutoyo, Japan) yararlanıldı. Elde edilen bulgular sonucunda büyük ruminantia’lar da fibula boyu hayvanlar arasında değişiklik göstermekteydi. Bu durum’un özellikle hekimler tarafından tibia travmalarında göz önünde bulundurulması gerektiği ve bu alanda çalışacak araştırmacılara yardımcı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
