Ossa cordis, bones located within the heart trigones, are often classified as heterotopic or ectopic bones. Despite their high prevalence in cattle and some other bovids, little is known about their structure or development. Scanning electron microsc...

This systematic review highlights the similarities and variations in Ossa cordis prevalence, histology and anatomical location between differing veterinary species and in humans. In addition, it also identifies associated factors such as aging and ca... Read More about Anatomy, histology, development and functions of Ossa cordis: A review.

Discovery Of A Bone In Chimpanzee Hearts (2022)
Journal Article
Sturrock, C. J., Stanford, K., Moittie, S., Baiker, K., Redrobe, S., & Rutland, C. S. (2022). Discovery Of A Bone In Chimpanzee Hearts. Frontiers for Young Minds, 9, Article 592105. https://doi.org/10.3389/frym.2021.592105

The os cordis (heart bone) is a rare bone found only in a few animals in the world. We discovered an os cordis in some chimpanzees. The os cordis was found in males and females, and in young and old animals. It was not present in chimps with healthy... Read More about Discovery Of A Bone In Chimpanzee Hearts.

Claw horn disruption lesions (CHDL; sole hemorrhage, sole ulcer, and white line disease) cause a large proportion of lameness in dairy cattle, yet their etiopathogenesis remains poorly understood. Untreated CHDL may be associated with damage to the i... Read More about Linking bone development on the caudal aspect of the distal phalanx with lameness during life.

Maternal protein-energy malnutrition during early pregnancy in sheep impacts the fetal ornithine cycle to reduce fetal kidney microvascular development (2014)
Journal Article
Dunford, L. J., Sinclair, K. D., Kwong, W. Y., Sturrock, C., Clifford, B. L., Giles, T. C., & Gardner, D. S. (2014).
