Case study of the successful therapy of a suspensory ligament injury
Summary
Elzarena, a 14 year old female show jumper injures the suspensory ligament on her right front
leg mid-October 2023 for unknown reasons. The main symptoms are lameness, heat and
swelling. At a first veterinary examination (22.10.23) Metacam is prescribed (10 days). There is
no significant improvement.
A further examination for a second opinion by Dr. Diego Gygax from Dalchenhof (13.11.23) follows. After a lameness test and an ultrasound examination, an acute strain of the suspensory ligament with part of the medial interosseous muscle on the right front leg is diagnosed.
The forecast for a possible return to show jumping is 40%.
