Re: [RC] [Guest] Stifle locking problem - Roger Rittenhousethat was a lucky call my research and the vets at UNIV TN and the vet who did the job said IF I really wanted to make sure I had a horse in a few years to NOT make the cut.. in his case it was the correct call.. at least the blister will not cause harm, if it did not work I could always have tried the cut.. but I think I would not take the risk. IT fails more times then it succeeds At least based on the professional advice I was given... You were lucky.
