History, signalment, clinical signs, diagnostics, medications, and surgery-related details were recorded. Horses with a minimum of 6 months follow-up were recruited for neurologic and imaging examinations in the hospital or field where radiography of the basihyoid-ceratohyoid articulation were performed along with CT, when available.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>10 horses with THO were included (9 unilateral; 1 bilateral). Nine planned partial ceratohyoidectomies were performed in 8 horses, whereas 2 horses had preoperatively planned complete ceratohyoidectomies transitioned to partial ceratohyoidectomies during surgery due to intraoperative complications. Postoperative complications occurred mostly in transitioned surgeries (obstructed airway, tongue mobility issues, and incisional hemorrhage), whereas only 1 horse with a planned ceratohyoidectomy had postoperative complication of rhabdomyolysis. All complications resolved before hospital discharge. Neurologic signs improved in all 10 horses, with 2 showing complete resolution. Nine horses were available for radiographic follow-up, 6 of which also had head CT scans. A space between the ceratohyoid and basihyoid bones was measurable on radiography in all 9 horses, and was confirmed on CT. Three horses demonstrated proliferation of either ceratohyoid or basihyoid bones. The 9 horses with unilateral disease returned to previous work, and the horse with bilateral disease was retired.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>CLINICAL RELEVANCE<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>Partial ceratohyoidectomy is a surgical option for treatment of THO that provides similar clinical outcomes to published reports on ceratohyoidectomy.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.22.08.0350","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,9]],"date-time":"2023-01-09T17:40:20Z","timestamp":1673286020000},"page":"358-365","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Partial ceratohyoidectomy as surgical treatment for horses with temporohyoid osteoarthropathy: 10 cases (2010\u20132021)"],"prefix":"10.2460","volume":"261","author":[{"given":"Alyson D.","family":"Booth","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Population Medicine Department, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Minnesota, Saint Paul, MN"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Felipe Lara","family":"Hidalgo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidad de Medicina y Cirugia Equina Hospital Clinico Veterinario, Universidad Andres Bello, Santiago, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fausto","family":"Bellezzo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Population Medicine Department, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Minnesota, Saint Paul, MN"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jenna M.","family":"Young","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Population Medicine Department, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Minnesota, Saint Paul, MN"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alex W.","family":"Bianco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Population Medicine Department, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Minnesota, Saint Paul, MN"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lauren E.","family":"Hughes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Population Medicine Department, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Minnesota, Saint Paul, MN"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mike","family":"Maher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Brandon Equine Medical Center, Brandon, FL"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Troy N.","family":"Trumble","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Population Medicine Department, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Minnesota, Saint Paul, MN"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicolas","family":"Ernst","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Population Medicine Department, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Minnesota, Saint Paul, MN"},{"name":"Unidad de Medicina y Cirugia Equina Hospital Clinico Veterinario, Universidad Andres Bello, Santiago, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1272","reference":[{"issue":"5","key":"ref1","series-title":"Equine Vet J.","first-page":"425","article-title":"Histopathology and computed tomography of age-associated degeneration of the equine temporohyoid joint","volume":"42","author":"Naylor RJ","year":"2010","unstructured":"Naylor RJ, Perkins JD, Allen S,  Histopathology and computed tomography of age-associated degeneration of the equine temporohyoid joint.
