Default Horse owners in central Kentucky - study horses needed

Learned of a new study today looking for another 8-12 horses to participate: horses with medial femoral condyle subcondral bone cysts (not OCD, cysts) = "stifle bone cyst"

New treatment being tried is screw placement through cyst. TB's good candidates. Any age (yearling to 6 or so) okay. Horses should be in central Kentucky, surgery here.

Greatly discounted surgery price, and followup x-rays and lameness exams every 60 days.

E-mail me, I'll give you contact info.

Yes, if you have yearling held out of Sept sale due to bone cyst on radiograph, perfect candidate!

And your reason for posting this random nastiness of yours in a thread about a new surgical procedure available to horses is because .... ?

I don't know if you're on any other forums and I don't post on this one but it seems like it might be a good place to publicize this study as they have horse care / horses in need subforums...
