Undesired reaction following intramuscular application of medicine: Case history

The paper describes the therapy of a neck wound in a horse that occurred as a consequence of an inflammatory reaction to an administered medicine. During the clinical examination, we established that it was a neck wound that had occurred as a consequence of an inflammatory reaction on the spot where the medicine had been administered. There was an expressed fist-size tissue defect, with necrosis covering the skin, the subcutaneous tissue, the cutaneous muscle, and the neck musculature. The ventral part of the wound contained a pocket with exudate and hypergranulation. Therapy was based on asceptic treatment of the area around the wound, trimming the edges of the wound, washing the wound, removing hypergranulation, draining, protecting the area from drying, applying treatment with antibiotics. The wound healed per secundam intentionem.
