摘要
A new surgical treatment Is described that was used to treat acute founder of 16 days' duration In both front feet of an overweight pony. The decision to employ the new method was Influenced by the founder having occurred relatively recently, the presence of a large founder distance and the low anticipated success rate based on data obtained from 166 previous cases of acute founder treated with a heart bar shoe, dorsal wall resection and deep digital flexor tenotomy method. The treatment provided rapid Improvement In lameness and a successful outcome with a good cosmetic result.
