Tom, a Bracco Italiano with a Trauma Wound to the Left Knee

MLS® Laser Therapy Case Study

Tom, a Bracco Italiano with a Trauma Wound to the Left Knee

Species: Dog

Breed: Bracco Italiano

Gender: Male

Age: 4 years old

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.
