A Morphological and Histological Investigation of the Sinus Interdigitalis in Konya Merino Sheep
Özet
In the study, it was aimed to reveal the morphological, morphometric and histological
characteristics of sinus interdigitalis found in the fore and hind feet of Konya merino sheep. For this
purpose, the fore and hind feet of 10 Konya merino sheep, weighing between 44-79 kg, were used.
Sinus interdigitalis were dissected out from the feet, and after morphometric measurements were
made, morphological examinations were performed and photographed. The shape of the sinus
interdigitalis, present in all the forefeet and hind feet, resembled a pipe consisting of neck and body.
It was determined that the neck part was longer than the body at all feet. The inner surface of the
gland was covered with hair, and there was more hair on the neck than on the body. The weight of
the gland, body length and diameter, flexura, canal length and diameter were measured
morphometrically. In the measurements made, it was determined that all the values of the forefeet
were higher than the hind feet. In histological examination, it was found that the wall of the sinus
interdigitalis consists of three layers: epidermis, dermis and fibrous capsule, and in the dermis, hair
follicles, sebaceous glands, m. arrector pili and sweat glands were found.
