Abstract
A pneumatic cast having an uninflatable longitudinal portion and a circumferential portion to provide support. The pneumatic cast is positioned over the affected leg of a newborn foal to correct various anatomical abnormalities. The pneumatic cast is positioned so that the uninflatable longitudinal portion can provide support for conforming the affected leg to the desired position upon inflation of the pneumatic cast. The uninflatable circumferential portion helps to support and position the pneumatic cast. The pneumatic cast can thereby by inflated to conform the leg without removing weight from the joints which could cause laxity. Anatomical abnormalities such as flexural deformities or contracted tendons and angular limb deformities can be treated.
