Abstract
A Basset Hound cadaver was donated to the Royal Veterinary College (RVC). The skeleton of this breed with chondrodysplasia was articulated for use in anatomy teaching and for display in the RVCs anatomy museum. The skeleton showed signs of grade 3 spondylosis deformans and coincidental osteoarthritis in several areas. Following articulation there was also evidence of angular limb deformities. The costal cartilages of the skeleton were not preserved during maceration however the excess bony growth present at their insertion points on the sternebrae was obvious. The decision was therefore made to recreate them. A novel method was used involving a multi-use sealant/adhesive which is described in this report.
