Brit.

/hɪˈpɒtəmi/, U.S.

/hɪˈpɑdəmi/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: hippo- comb. form, -tomy comb. form.

Etymology: < hippo- comb. form + -tomy comb. form, after post-classical Latin hippotomia (1826 or earlier).Compare French hippotomie (1772 or earlier), Spanish hipotomía (1806 or earlier), German Hippotomie (1811 or earlier).

Now rare (chiefly historical).

The branch of comparative anatomy dealing with horses.

ΚΠ

1832 B. Clark Stereoplea (ed. 2) Pref. p. iv We believe the whole matter or art relating to Horses admits of useful division into three large classes... 1. The whole Anatomy of the animal, and physiology and functions, to be entitled Hippotomia, or Hippotomy.

1868 R. Owen On Anat. Vertebr. III. xxxv. 616 On the inner side of the hind-leg, a little below the ‘tarsus’ (hock-joint, Hippotomy), is a naked protuberance of a soft horny consistence.

1873 Med. Times & Gaz. 10 May 503/1 A full and complete treatise on hippotomy, with subsections on the points of difference of structure and configuration between the horse, the ox, sheep, pig, cat, and dog, and a general comparison with the anatomy of man.

1910 S. Sisson Text-bk. Vet. Anat. 17 Special anatomy is the description of the structure of a single type or species, e.g., anthropotomy, hippotomy.

1988 E. Farkas & I. K. Kecské tr. D. Karasszon Conc. Hist. Vet. Med. 392 Owing to its character, hippotomy stressed especially the anatomy of the limbs (foot).
