What nerve block is used to desensitize the hock and all distal
structures?
Tibial peroneal nerve block
Where should your anesthetic be placed for a tibial peroneal nerve
block?
- under the calcanean tendon about 4" above the point of the hock
- fan anesthetic into the lateral aspect of the leg between the
muscle bellies of the long and lateral digital extensors at the same
level as the previous block
What percentage of horses over the age of 15 have PPID?
20%
What condition is known to predispose horses to proximal hindlimb
suspensory desmitis?
PPID
,What is the preferred treatment for proximal suspensory desmitis in a
horse with normal conformation?
neurectomy and fasciotomy
What two conformational issues would preclude performing surgery
to treat proximal suspensory desmitis?
straight hocks
hyperextended
fetlocks
What steroids are typically injected into low motion joints in the
horse?
methylprednisolone
What steroids are typically injected into high motion joints in the
horse?
triamcinolone or betamethasone
T/F: Intra-articular steroids put horses with metabolic disease at
an increased risk of developing laminitis
True
, Are steroids or biologics a safer choice for intra-articular
injections in a horse with metabolic disease?
biologics
