Tom, a Bracco Italiano with a trauma wound to the left knee

SPECIES: dog
BREED: Bracco Italiano
GENDER: male
AGE: 4 years
NAME: Tom

 

Clinical case:

Tom suffered an injury during a hunt, probably due to hitting a stone or a branch.
Tom underwent surgery, but because of the extent and the position of the wound, and because of the owners’ lack of attention during the post-op phase, the wound reopened.

Therapy:

It was therefore decided to attempt a second intention closure using MLS® Laser Therapy together with a topical treatment of Hypermix between the sessions.

The owners decided to stop therapy after the fifteenth MLS® Laser Therapy session.
