*The '''distal sesamoidean (impar) ligament''' originates from the distal margin of the navicular bone and deep digital flexor tendon. It extends from the navicular bone proximally for 1.0-1.5cm and distally to the insertion of the deep digital flexor tendon on the distal phalanx (pedal bone).

The navicular bone is separated from the deep digital flexor tendon by the '''navicular bursa'''. There is no communication between the navicular bursa and the [[Joints and Ligaments - Horse Anatomy#Thoracic Limb|distal interphalangeal (coffin) joint]].
