Poultry Femoral Head Separation and Necrosis: A Review.

Avian diseases - 1 Sept 2015

Packialakshmi B, Rath N C, Huff W E, Huff G R

Abstract excerpt

Femoral head separation (FHS) is a degenerative skeletal problem in fast-growing poultry wherein the growth plate of the proximal femur separates from its articular cartilage. At its early phase, FHS may remain asymptomatic but lead to epiphyseal breakage, infection, and femoral head necrosis (FHN). Healthy femoral head is viewed as a positive trait for genetic selection. However, the etiology of FHS is poorly...
