Tenoscopy of the navicular bursa : a new therapeutic approach for horses affected by "palmar pain syndrome". Endoscopic technique review and personal experiences / M. Scandella, S.S. Lazzaretti, D. De Zani, M. Cassano, D.D. Zani, G. Ravasio, M. Gualtieri. - In: VETERINARY RESEARCH COMMUNICATIONS. - ISSN 0165-7380. - 34:Suppl. 1(2010 Jun), pp. 124-129.
Abstract:
Tenoscopy of the navicular bursa has been recently introduced as a diagnostic and therapeutic treatment in cases of palmar foot pain syndrome. A deep digital flexor tendon transthecal approach was suggested in 1999, and the endoscopic technique has been reviewed. Smith and coworkers have recently reported good and promising results. An anatomic cadaver limb study was performed, and the endoscopic technique was evaluated. Subsequently, a 14-year-old Argentine mare, affected by palmar foot pain syndrome, was treated. Clinical data, MRI and endoscopic findings, and a 6-month follow-up evaluation are reported.
