Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues:

Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) equine techniques are increasingly available and are improving in terms of quality under general anaesthesia and also for standing patients. Advanced techniques described in peer-reviewed literature both for soft and hard tissues have improved the outcome for athletic performance and for survival and prognosis; furthermore, this type of approach is now available for procedures that, until not too long ago, were very invasive.

This Special Issue aims to bring, in an open access format, the most significant and recent works on the use of MIS techniques in horses and other equines. Original research articles (in vivo and ex vivo), clinical trials, prospective or retrospective studies, case reports, as well as reviews, are welcome and will be accepted.

Topics could include soft tissue and orthopedic procedures, including endoscopic surgery (laparoscopy, thoracoscopy, arthroscopy, flexible endoscopic surgery) and also endovascular surgery, minimally invasive treatment of fractures, etc.

We look forward to your submission.

Dr. Francisco José Vázquez Bringas
