Abstract: | Regional limb perfusion is used to treat infections of the distal limb and can be performed using a peripheral vein or the intraosseous route; the peripheral vein is the preferred technique. Other distal limb entities of clinical importance include foot conformation problems, bruising, heel pain, navicular disease, degenerative joint disease, tendonitis and desmitis. Specific clinical problems of the distal limb seen in the foal and aged horse are frequently managed with good foot care. |
