LVT Valerie performed a regional limb perfusion (RLP) on a patient with a serious laceration to the tarsus (hock). RLP is a medical procedure that allows us to administer high levels of antibiotics to soft tissue structures with less systemic effects. A tourniquet is applied above the wound, and an antibiotic solution is administered. The tourniquet is left on for 20-30 minutes, and a pressure gradient forces the antibiotics into the tissue.

Melanomas have met their match! Dr. Ratliff has treated several horses for cutaneous melanomas with laser surgical excision recently. While other treatment modalities have been pursued, they have not been effective long term. Most of these surgeries can be done safely standing followed with pain management.
