I think the injury the OP is speaking of is a fracture of the wing of the illium , usually caused by hitting it at high speed coming out a stall or shed door. Sometimes you can ultrasound it, most of the time you can palpate it. It's not really xrayable .

I didn't see it happen but end result was a horse in tremendous pain, worse then colic and only 2 spots close to that area missing hair...

My horse is working like he always does but he is not clocking. Its been 2 years and something in my gut said he wouldn't be the same. He got the tip of his pelvis you could see on ultra sound
