The Head and Neck

About the Course

What else is available for airway surgery- should you be tying back or grafting? How should you select your cases? Or do you have competition horses that are stiff through their necks? What can we do to free them up, or are they too free in their movement? Do you know how best to image the neck and what other options are now out there?

Practical lectures for the general equine practitioner to brush up on head and neck including the guttural pouch, upper airway surgery, diagnostic imaging and management of neck problems in sport horses in the field.
