Problematika podotrochlózy u koní a možnosti její léčby
Svačinová, Monika
The bachelor thesis Podotrochlosis in Horses and the Possibilities of its Treatment deals with the problems related to the navicular syndrome also called caudal heel syndrome. The work includes a brief anatomical overview of a hoof structure, a summary of the most common hoof problems and diseases. Furthermore, more theories about the possibilities of origin and causes of podotrochlosis are introduced. For example, the hoof shock, mechanical stress and strain could be an origin of it as well as thrombosis or bone remodeling. The possibility of occurrence in soft tissues is also considered. The methods of diagnosis follow in the same chapter as treatment procedures that can be used in the process of practice. The best determination method is clearly magnetic resonance which explores new approaches. However, X-ray diagnostic and ultrasonograph are more common and more accessible. There are many therapeutic options to be used according to the severity of the disease. The most frequent treatment is a therapeutic horseshoeing or higly effective medicaments. These are, for example, bisphosphonate preparations and corticosteroids. The pododtrochlosis is a denegerative disease and for this reason it is necessary to manage appropriate prevention. Once the horse is affected the only solution is theraphy of consequences.
