ABSTRACT
Hypertrophic osteodystrophy (HO) is a disease of unknown cause that occurs in young animals of fast-growing breeds, causing periosteal changes in long bone metaphyses. A male Rottweiler, 8 months old was treated at the Veterinary Hospital of UFERSA with swelling joints and lameness. Radiological study observed productive, irregular periosteal reaction, around the distal metaphyseal radius, ulna and tibia (right and left), with increased volume and diffuse radiopacity of the adjacent soft tissue of the metaphyseal regions, with the suggestive diagnosis of HO.(AU)
