COURSE DESCRIPTION
Head trauma/conditions are frequently encountered by 1st opinion veterinarians and a significant number of these cases can be appropriately dealt with in the field and don’t require specialized equipment. This 2-day practical course covers head wounds, facial & jaw fractures, sinus & guttural pouch problems, oral & tongue lacerations, nasofrontal suture periostitis, oral and nasal foreign bodies etc. The panel of internationally renowned specialists will discuss in detail how to triage horses appropriately and which cases can be treated within your own practice setting. Between both mornings the following highly-illustrated lectures will be given in English (with German moderation):
- Facial Bones & Sinus Anatomy – A refresher
- Paranasal Sinuses – The Work-Up
- Paranasal Sinuses – Surgical Access
- Working up Facial Wounds & Fractures (incl. X-ray & Ultrasound)
- Fractures of the Mandible & Maxilla
- Stabilizing Rostral Mandibular Fractures
- Management of Facial Bone Fractures
- Aftercare & Complications of Facial Fracture Repair
- Hunting for the Foreign Body – Mouth & Nasal Passages
- Oral & Tongue Lacerations
- The use of External Fixators for Mandibular Fractures
- Nasofrontal Suture Periostitis – An increasingly common Complication
Open and frank discussions are encouraged and the speakers will share their personal experiences, successes and failures, with attendees.
In the afternoons, 7 hours of practical sessions will give attendees plenty of opportunity to put theory into practice on cadaver specimens and to ask questions in true small groups (2 attendees per specimen), all under the supervision of specialists. The following practical sessions will be covered during the course:
- Head Radiography & Ultrasound in Trauma Patients – Facial Fractures, Wounds & Eye/Orbit
