In a draught foal born in Tokachi, Hokkaido, Japan, dysstasia and a cold tumor of 3 cm diameter were observed in the lateral surface of the left carpal region immediately after birth. At Obihiro University, an ultrasonic examination revealed an absence of the tendon parenchyma on the anterior surface of the left carpal region, and a diagnosis of congenital rupture of the common digital extensor tendons was suggested. Compression bandages improved the gait, and eventually the foal was traded when it was 270 days old.
