Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Reviews and Case Reports - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Equine wound management is challenging to the veterinarian in practice. This paper presents the successful management outcome of a large wound on the brisket of a seven and half years old Dangola Stallion horse sustained from a road traffic accident. There was traumatic shearing off of the skin including the dermis and fascia of the thoracic inlet beginning from the ventral caudal end of the neck to the cranial border of both shoulders and there were two open wounds on the medio-cranial aspect of the right tibial region just below the elbow joint. All physiological parameters were within normal range. Continuous suture and interrupted patterns were used during the surgical procedure until all the exposed muscles were apposed. The surgery was successful, with good post operative care, the wound healed properly.
