| Abstract: | Brachial angiograms were performed on 13 forelimbs from 12 dogs with growth-plate disorders of the distal radius and ulna. Eight angiograms were considered normal and five showed failure of individual arteries to fill, in two cases associated with hypertrophy of other vessels. Angiography was too insensitive to identify the small vessels which supplied the growth plates. |
