Vascular changes in the corium of the claw associated with laminitis were investigated. Numerous arteriovenous shunts were present at typical ulceration sites. Experimental endotoxinaemia due to carbohydrate overload produced a coagulation disorder, with thrombosis and moderate infiltration by inflammatory cells in the claw corium, but without acute laminitis.
