“…Although the present study has clarified some of the hitherto unknown conditions regarding the BST lesions in dairy cows, further studies are needed in order to disclose the aetiological and pathogenetic mechanisms that underlie the development of these common and distinct characteristic tail lesions in Holstein cows. In the German study, no genetic background for the origin of the tail lesions entitled “ring-like alterations” was found [ 14 ], but with the characteristic segmented shape of the lesions, sometimes with presence of more parallel lesions on the same tail, it is reasonable to believe that the segmented blood supply in the tail [ 15 ] could be of pathogenetic significance.…”

The aim of the study was to characterise and determine the prevalence of band-shaped tail lesions in Holstein cows. Lesions were present either as wounds or by epithelised granulation/connective tissue formations. Both types were characterised by a median localisation 7 cm from the tip of the tail, and they occurred on the dorsal aspect of the tail. From here they encircled the tail either completely or in varying degrees, and they were often present as isolated lesions (93%). The prevalence of band-shaped tail lesions was found to be 25% among 2099 cows examined in 16 Danish Holstein herds with a variation from 18 to 40% between herds. In the herds, the wound lesions and the connective tissue formations accounted for 22% and 78% of all band-shaped tail lesions, respectively. Among 458 Holstein cows examined at an abattoir the prevalence of band-shaped tail lesions was 23%, i.e. similar to the prevalence within the herds. At the abattoir the share of band-shaped wound lesions was 67% and the band-shaped connective tissue formation 33%. Associations between the occurrence of band-shaped tail lesions and parity and lack of the tail tip were observed.

Band-shaped tail lesions in Danish Holstein dairy cows are present either as wounds or in the form of connective tissue formations. Both types are characterized by a median localization 7 cm from the tip of the tail, are always occurring on the dorsal side of the tail, which they can envelop completely or to varying degrees, and are often present as single lesions (93%). The prevalence of band-shaped tail lesions was observed to be 25% among 2099 cows examined in 16 Danish dairy herds with a variation from 18–40% between herds. In the herds the wound lesions and the connective tissue formations accounted for 22% and 78% of all band-shaped tail lesions, respectively. Among 458 cows examined at an abattoir the prevalence of band-shaped tail lesions was 23%, i.e. similar to the prevalence within the herds. At the abattoir the share of band-shaped wound lesions was 67% and the band-shaped connective tissue formation 33%. Associations between the occurrence of band-shaped tail lesions and parity and lack of the tail tip were observed.
