Results of treatment of subchondral bone cysts in the medial condyle of the equine femur with an autogenous cancellous bone graft

Abstract

The results of surgical treatment of 10 subchondral bone cysts, all located in the medial femoral condyle, are presented. A cancellous bone graft was used in nine cases and a two component acrylic bone cement was used in the case of an extremely large cyst. Eight out of the 10 cases made a satisfactory clinical recovery.
