RE: [RC] suspensory ligament injury - David LeBlanc

Jerry & Susan Milam


There's a new procedure written up in "The Horse" where they 
are taking bone marrow and other tissue with high counts of 
stem cells and other growth factors and injecting this into 
the ligamments that are damaged to promote a stronger repair 
to the ligaments and even tendons as they heal. That is 
really amazing and I'm sure it will be available for humans 
as time goes on.


I saw that, and it looked interesting. I've also seen a ultrasound chokc
therapy used that can help. Worth talking to the vet about.
