Six horses were found to have infective arthritis of one elbow joint. The history, and presence of a small wound on the lateral aspect of the elbow suggested the condition was trauma induced. Two horses recovered following joint lavage under general anaesthesia and antibiotic therapy. The joint changes found post mortem in the others were characteristic of an infective arthritis.
发现六匹马的一个肘关节患有感染性关节炎。病史以及肘部外侧的小伤口表明这种情况是由创伤引起的。两匹马在全身麻醉下进行关节灌洗和抗生素治疗后康复。其他马匹死后发现的关节变化是感染性关节炎的特征。
