말에서 Digital flexor tendon sheath (DFTS)의 감염성 건초염은 치명적인 질병이다. 본 연구에서는 관절경을 이용한 말 DFTS의 감염성 건초염 치료 결과를 보고하고자 한다. DFTS에 급성 감염성 건초염이 발생한 13마리의 더 러브렛 말에 관절경 수술을 실시하였다. 수술시간은 56-148분(평균 85.6분, 중간값 84.0분)이였다. 활액검사에서 평균 백혈구수, 평균 중성구 비율, 평균 총단백질 수치는, 각각 $42.9{\times}103cells/{\mu}l$ (range, $7.2-109.5cells/{\mu}l$), 89.5% (range, 68-97%), 4.0 g/dl (range, 2.5-5.2 g/dl)이였다. 활액의 세포배양 검사를 실시한 11두중 2두에서 세균의 증식이 관찰되었다. 모든 말들은 부작용 없이 회복되어 원래의 목적으로 사용되었다. 말 DFTS의 급성 감염성 건초염에서 관절경 수술은 유용할 것으로 생각된다.

Septic tenosynovitis of the digital flexor tendon sheath (DFTS) is a potentially career-ending and life-threatening problem in horses. This study aimed to describe the outcomes of tenoscopy for the treatment of acute septic digital flexor tenosynovitis in horses. Tenoscopy was performed on 13 Thoroughbred horses with acute septic tenosynovitis of the DFTS. Surgical time was 56-148 min (mean 85.6 min, median 84.0 min). In the synovial fluid analysis, mean white blood cell count, mean neutrophil proportion, and mean total protein were $42.9{\times}10^3cells/{\mu}l$ (range, $7.2-109.5cells/{\mu}l$), 89.5% (range, 68-97%), and 4.0 g/dl (range, 2.5-5.2 g/dl), respectively. Microbial growth in the synovial fluid culture was detected in 2 of 11 horses. All horses survived and returned to their intended use without complications. The present study demonstrated that the tenoscopy is useful for treating acute septic tenosynovitis of the DFTS in horses.

문제 정의
Tenoscopy has many advantages, compared with other treatments, such as better visualization, enhanced lavage, and guided debridement with minimal invasiveness (2,6,10,16). The purpose of this paper is to describe the clinical features, diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of horses with septic tenosynovitis of the DFTS undergoing tenoscopy.
가설 설정
b)Bacterial culture was not performed.
제안 방법
Rapid recovery without any complications is necessary for young Thoroughbred horses for a career in racing. Reported treatments include local and systemic antibiotics, through-and-through lavage, open drainage, tenosynoviotomy, and tenoscopic-assisted debridement and lavage (2,5,6,8,12).
Medical records of horses submitted to tenoscopy for treating septic tenosynovitis of the DFTS at the Shadai Horse Clinic between August 2003 and October 2012 were reviewed. The diagnosis of septic tenosynovitis was made on the basis of clinical signs (lameness, distension, pain, and heat), ultrasonographic findings (distension and aggregation of fibrin), tenoscopic findings (aggregations of fibrin, inflamed synovium, synovial masses), and synovial fluid analysis results (high white blood cell count, increased percentage of neutrophils, high total protein) (Fig 1).
Systemic antibiotics: cefalothin sodium (20 mg/kg, i.v., BID, Coaxin, Tobishi Pharmaceutical, Tokyo, Japan) and gentamicine sulphate (6 mg/kg, i.v., SID, Gentacin, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Tokyo, Japan), and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug: flunixin meglumine (1 mg/kg, i.v., BID, Banamine, Dainippon Sumitomo Pharmaceutical, Tokyo, Japan) were administered to all horses for 1-2 weeks after surgery.
대상 데이터
Medical records of 13 Thoroughbred horses were evaluated in this study. The signalment, history, clinical finding, surgery, and outcomes are summarized (Table 1).
Two horses were with traumatic septic tenosynovitis and the other horses were with idiopathic tenosynovitis. Eighteen tenoscopic surgeries were performed on the 13 horses. Ten horses received single tenoscopy, 2 horses received 2 times tenoscopy, and 1 horse received 4 times surgery.
