Abstract
The article presents the results of studies of a complex methodological approach, including morphometry of tubular bones and foot, followed by determination of their development indices, characteristics of compact bone tissue, radiography and radiogrammetry according to the biomechanical study. The digital material was subjected to statistical processing. The studies were carried out at the Department of Anatomy and Histology of Animals named after Professor A. F. Klimov of the K. I. Skryabin Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Professional Education of the Moscow State Automobile and Mechanical Engineering Academy, as well as at the National Medical Research Centre of Traumatology and Orthopaedics named after N. N. Priorov. The material for the study were the pelvic limbs of the Soviet chinchilla rabbit (n=20) and the pelvic limbs of the Rusak hare (n=12), without signs of pathology, with body weight from 4 to 7 kg. In the comparative analysis, relative indices and biomechanical indices affecting the character of the statolocomotor act in the studied animals were established. Structural and biomechanical parallels of the pelvic limb bone framework in closely related representatives of hares were established, which reflect its high adaptive plasticity associated with the specialisation of the stato-locomotor act. The results obtained are normative in the issues of experimental modelling of pathologies of the bone structure of the musculoskeletal apparatus.
