In this episode of the Simini Equine Surgery Podcast, we dive into the April 2025 issue of Veterinary Surgery and explore two high-stakes orthopedic studies that redefine stabilization—one at the fetlock and pastern, and the other at the thoracolumbar spine.
You’ll hear takeaways from two groundbreaking investigations:
✅ Orozco Lopez et al. — Dual joint arthrodesis in racehorses with catastrophic suspensory failure. Discover how a human distal femur plate eliminated PIPJ subluxation—but didn’t eliminate infection risk.
✅ Pezzanite et al. — A biomechanical comparison of pedicle screw rod constructs with and without interbody fusion devices. When it comes to stabilization, this study questions whether more hardware really equals more safety.
Whether you manage racehorse injuries or contemplate spine stabilization in any species, this episode delivers actionable, data-driven surgical insights.
