MSK 2 Flashcards
does a broken back foot have long or short DDFT
long
what is podotrochlear apparatus
- DDFT
- suspensory ligament
- collateral sesamoid ligament
- distal sesamoidean impar ligament
- distal interphalangeal joint
- navicular bursa
- navicular bone
dx of the podotrochlear apparatus
fibrocartilage erosion
adhesions
cysts
flexor tendon fibrillation
navicular bursitis
dx pathophysiology of podotrochlear apparatus
repitiive low grade trauma (compression)
dx of dx of podotrochlear apparatus
land toe first
low grade gradual lameness
7+ invaginations on MRI
tx for navicular dx
- shorten toe
- graduated heels
- PBZ or steroids
- bisphosphonates
- navicular bursoscopy
how to tx solar bruise
NSAIDs
rest
glue on shoes
what is a corn
bruise at angle edge of shoe
foot abscess dx
hoof testers
also (heat, bounding digital pulse, gas on radiograph)
tx for foot abscess
drainage
Mg salt foot bath
tetanus
where does keratoma form
between laminae and hoof wall
recurrent foot abscess may be caused by
keratoma
septic pedal osteitis
what is pedal osteitis
inflammation of distal phalanx (demineralization of bone margin)
sx tx for septic pedal osteitis
debride - standing or GA
what is quittor? possible causes?
infection of collateral cartilage.
causes - hoof wall crack, puncture wound, chronic abscess.
what is seedy toe
white line dx (extends up stratum medium)
what to do for WLD/seedy toe
clean environment
shoe to protect exposed sole
what is sidebone
mineralization of collateral cartilage –> doesn’t cause lameness
what to do for distal phalanx fx
external or internal coaptation
thrush vs canker
both F. necroforum
thrush = pododermititis of frog, tx = debride + foot bath + clean env
canker = dermatitis of frog and bulbs, cheesy exudate tx = radical repeat debridment
where is danger zone for solar penetration
middle (bc of synovial structures)
