Summary This report describes the successful surgical removal of an osteoma of the thoracic dorsal spinous processes of a horse that presented with back pain. Osteomas of the spine are frequently reported in the literature in people, but have not been previously described in the horse.

This report outlines the diagnosis, surgical treatment and successful outcome following treatment of second metacarpal bone exostosis with concurrent suspensory ligament desmitis, and lameness in a horse. Magnetic resonance imaging was useful in determining the extent of pathology within the suspensory ligament and site of proposed surgical resection. MRI was also utilised as a post-operative tool in determining the timescale for satisfactory healing to enable the horse to return to athletic work.
