Publisher Description: This issue focuses on the latest treatment options concerning bovine orthopedic conditions. Topics covered include: external fixation devices, orthotics and prosthetics, coxofemoral disease, septic arthritis, splints and casts, stifle disorders, internal fixation, diseases of the tendon, imaging techniques, and more Overall this is a specialist text, it will make a useful addition to the practice reference library, for both basic fracture treatments and when dealing with more complex cases. Reviewed by: Roger Blowey. Date: 25/07/2014 Although it is inspiring to read about the possibilities and techniques for bovines currently in development (many require more research or practice, as often indicated by the poor success rates or small amount of data available), they have little place in current farm animal veterinary practice.
