| Abstract | ||||
| Nine cases of complete accidentally severed digital flexor tendons in equines were reviewed and discussed. The successful surgical treatment was investigated. A group of 6 donkeys were used for performance of experimantal tenotomy of both superficial and deep digital flexor tendons to demonstrate their healing process 2 and 4 weeks post-operation. All recent and the experimentally operated animals survived with good recovery. The healing of the severed flexor tendons and the skin per perimum was studied 4 weeks after the operation. Comparative histopathological observations between recent and contaminated transected tendons were moreover investiga ted. | ||||
