MLS® Laser Therapy Case Study
Niki, a German Shepherd with a Lacerated and Contused Wound of Traumatic Origin
Species: Dog
Breed: German Shepherd
Gender: Female
Age: 9 years old
Clinical Case
Niki was brought to the clinic with an injury obtained during a walk. While she was running, she hit her right side against a protruding piece of iron, causing a lacerated and contused wound.
The wound was sutured, but her clinical picture was not good: the piece of skin showed necrotic tissue and some stiches began to come undone in some points. A surgical curettage of the wound was carried out, with removal of the necrotic skin flap and a second stitch up.
Therapy
It was decided to submit Niki to MLS Laser Therapy sessions. The “Wound (infected)” program was applied the first two times, to then switch to the “Wound” program.
Between each MLS Laser Therapy session, the wound was also medicated with Hypermix.
