Terapia celular em lesões articulares, tendíneas e ligamentares de equinos

Abstract

The Mandatory Supervised Internship is part of the curriculum of completion of the course of Veterinary Medicine at the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco. The student completed his total workload of 420 hours in the period from September 9 to November 29. The ESO was carried out in two phases: The first at the Medical Assistance and Instelment for Sporthorses Veterinary Team in the city of São Paulo - SP, which provides home sports medical care to more than 250 horse athletes. The second phase was held at the Equine Hospital of Bosdreef, in the municipality of Moerbeke-Waas - Belgium, which has as its main target audience high performance horses. The aim of the internship was to acquire technical-scientific knowledge about the surgical clinic of horses by following several cases in both institutions. During the first stage of the ESO, home visits were made to monitor the horses' performance, athletic performance and health status. In the second stage, procedures were performed in the areas of orthopedics, neurology, medical and surgical clinic and diagnostic imaging. This report describes ESO's activities in two chapters. The first describes the report of the actions developed in the internship, and the second presents a literature review on cell therapies in equine articular, tendon and ligament injuries.
