Manejo Terapéutico de Septicemia y Artritis Séptica Neonatal Estudio de caso clínico de septicemia en equinos

Septic arthritis in horses is a relatively common entity and is considered as the most severe problem that a joint can be faced with, since the inflammatory response to bacterial invasion may be severe enough to cause irreversible damage to the articular cartilage, leading to permanent alterations of the athletic performance or even euthanasia of the animal. Septic arthritis can cause irreversible damage to the joint if the infection is not cleared up. quickly removed from the synovial space, in foals (neonates) it appears more commonly due to Hematogenous infections and in fewer cases due to iatrogenic or traumatic causes. The joints most commonly affected by this type of pathology are the patellofemoral and tarsus femoris. In foals, septic arthritis may or may not be associated with other systemic infections, such as those of the navel, gastrointestinal tract, and respiratory tract. It should be noted that in septic arthritis the first clinical signs are increased the amount of synovial fluid and a high temperature, therefore palpation is important exhaustive study of all joints that allows detecting cases very early before limb claudication is evident.
