ENG Hoof cracks represent a significant farriery and orthopedic condition that directly affects equine locomotion, weight-bearing stability, and long-term musculoskeletal health. This article-style description provides a systematic and academically structured overview of crack classification, pathophysiology, etiology, diagnostic protocols, corrective farriery techniques, and preventive strategies based on international standards.
ENG Hoof cracks exhibit high prevalence across global equine populations. Rather than arising from a single factor, they are the consequence of complex interactions among mechanical stress, structural imbalance, nutritional insufficiency, environmental fluctuations, and hereditary hoof-wall weakness. Beyond cosmetic defects, cracks are associated with infection, lameness, impaired athletic performance, and recurrent structural instability.

ํก์ด์ (Horizontal Crack): ๊ฐ๋ก ๋ฐฉํฅ ๊ท ์ด
ENG
Vertical Crack: Axially oriented fissures
Horizontal Crack: Transverse fissures across the hoof wall
2.2 Based on anatomical location (ํด๋ถํ์ ์์น๋ณ ๋ถ๋ฅ)
ENG Hoof cracks develop when tensile strength of the hoof wall is compromised in combination with asymmetrical load distribution. Cracks propagate along the line of maximal stress, typically following preexisting structural weaknesses within the wall architecture.
ENG Recovery depends fundamentally on the biomechanical principle that hoof growth must exceed crack propagation. Balancing and corrective shoeing reduce shear and tensile forces at the crack margins, accelerating restoration of wall integrity.
ENG Hoof cracks are highly treatable when accurate diagnosis, corrective farriery, and environmental/nutritional management are implemented together. If neglected, they may lead to infection, lameness, and chronic structural deformity, resulting in long-term functional impairment.
