    Surgical removal of villonodular synovitis in horses is effective for correction. Rest alone is insufficient, and radiation therapy after surgery is not required for successful treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Equine Surgery
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Villonodular synovitis (VNS) is a proliferative joint disorder affecting horses.
    • Accurate diagnosis and effective treatment strategies for VNS are crucial for equine limb soundness.

    Observation:

    • This study presents nineteen cases of VNS in fourteen horses.
    • Physical and radiographic findings associated with VNS were documented.
    • Surgical correction of VNS lesions was performed and described.

    Findings:

    • Surgical extirpation of VNS lesions resulted in corrective outcomes.
    • Conservative management, including rest without surgical intervention, proved ineffective.
    • Post-operative radiation therapy did not demonstrate necessity or added benefit.

    Implications:

    • Surgical excision is the recommended treatment for equine villonodular synovitis.
    • Conservative management should not be relied upon as a sole treatment modality.
    • Current evidence does not support the routine use of radiation therapy post-VNS surgery in horses.
