ringbone

Definition

A commonly used term refering to joint disease (osteoarthritis) in the distal interphalangeal joint (coffin joint). As there is often a considerable degree of bony proliferation, it can appear as a bony 'ring' around the pastern just above the coronet, hence the name.

Translations :
