ABSTRACT
Marzok M, Strommenger W, Höppner
S, Hertsch B., C-arm fluoroscopy
for repulsion of maxillary teeth in horses, Onl J Vet
Res., 30 (5): 273-285, 2026. We applied fluoroscopic guided surgical repulsion of maxillary
cheek teeth on 16 horses. By this method, we found no repulsion of teeth, fracture
of lateral, medial walls of alveolus, palatine bone or tooth fracture. Horses were hospitalized 22-85 days. However, 2 horses
developed postoperative complications during hospitalization but by 12 months, all cases except one, resolved. One horse presented 3
months after, with orosinus fistula and underwent
surgery with resolution by 5 weeks. We
find that C-arm fluoroscopy is an effective and safe procedure for
extraction of equine cheek teeth.
