Shoulder luxation in a 3-year-old Thoroughbred filly was treated by closed reduction, using a calf jack to provide traction on the limb. Arthroscopic examination of the shoulder allowed removal of soft tissue and bony debris. After surgery, the filly was confined to a box stall for 6 months. Eight months after surgery, the filly was doing light work and was not lame. Muscular atrophy present before surgery had resolved. Use of a calf jack may allow reduction of shoulder luxation under field conditions.
一匹3岁的纯种雌马肩部脱臼，通过闭合复位进行治疗，使用小牛牵引架对肢体施加牵引力。对肩部进行关节镜检查，清除了软组织和骨碎片。手术后，这匹雌马被关在一个单间马厩里6个月。手术后8个月，这匹雌马进行轻度活动，没有跛行。手术前出现的肌肉萎缩已经消失。在野外条件下，使用小牛牵引架可能有助于复位肩部脱臼。
