Equine Musculoskeletal Pathologies: Clinical Approaches and Therapeutical Perspectives-A Review.
Abstract: Musculoskeletal injuries such as equine osteoarthritis, osteoarticular defects, tendonitis/desmitis, and muscular disorders are prevalent among sport horses, with a fair prognosis for returning to exercise or previous performance levels. The field of equine medicine has witnessed rapid and fruitful development, resulting in a diverse range of therapeutic options for musculoskeletal problems. Staying abreast of these advancements can be challenging, prompting the need for a comprehensive review of commonly used and recent treatments. The aim is to compile current therapeutic options for managing these injuries, spanning from simple to complex physiotherapy techniques, conservative treatments including steroidal and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, hyaluronic acid, polysulfated glycosaminoglycans, pentosan polysulfate, and polyacrylamides, to promising regenerative therapies such as hemoderivatives and stem cell-based therapies. Each therapeutic modality is scrutinized for its benefits, limitations, and potential synergistic actions to facilitate their most effective application for the intended healing/regeneration of the injured tissue/organ and subsequent patient recovery. While stem cell-based therapies have emerged as particularly promising for equine musculoskeletal injuries, a multidisciplinary approach is underscored throughout the discussion, emphasizing the importance of considering various therapeutic modalities in tandem.

This study is a comprehensive review of current and emerging treatments for common musculoskeletal injuries in sport horses, including therapies ranging from basic physiotherapy to advanced stem cell-based therapies, outlining their benefits, limitations, and synergistic applicability.
The Scope of the Research Review
- The research article is an exhaustive review of treatments applied to musculoskeletal injuries commonly encountered in sport horses.
- Conditions such as equine osteoarthritis, osteoarticular defects, tendonitis/desmitis, and muscular disorders are extensively addressed in this review.
- These conditions, prevalent among sport horses, offer variable prognosis for recovery and return to previous performance levels.
- The broad spectrum of therapeutic options presented in this paper ranges from straightforward physiotherapy techniques to more complex emerging innovations including stem cell-based therapies.
Review Methodology
- The authors analyze each therapeutic modality in detail, examining benefits, limitations, and potential synergistic effects.
- The survey encompasses conservative treatments which include steroidal and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, hyaluronic acid, polysulfated glycosaminoglycans, pentosan polysulfate, and polyacrylamides.
- The paper also addresses advanced regenerative therapies such as hemoderivatives and stem cell-based ones.
- The aim is to provide a comprehensive understanding of these treatments, facilitating their most efficient application for healing injured musculoskeletal tissues or organs, leading to full patient recovery.
Significance of the Multidisciplinary Approach
- While stem cell-based therapies are highlighted as particularly promising in treating equine musculoskeletal injuries, the paper strongly advocates a multidisciplinary approach to treatment.
- The authors emphasize that successful management of these injuries often involves considering different therapeutic modalities together, rather than relying on a single treatment approach.
Concluding Remarks
- The research review intends to inform the reader of the cornucopia of treatment options currently available and the emerging therapeutic strategies for managing musculoskeletal injuries in sport horses.
- By highlighting the benefits, limitations, and potential synergies, it aims to contribute to decisions regarding the selection of the most effective therapeutic modality or combination of modalities.
