Abstract

Twenty-nine cattle were examined. In them, 31 hoofs were affected with pododermatitis circumscripta, 4 with pododermatitis traumatica, and 2 with white zone disease. Technovit 6091 manufactured by Kulzer Co., Ltd., West Germany was applied to 15 hoofs of cattle showing remarkable supporting-leg lameness. The remaining hoofs served as untreated controls. The duration required for healing was 19.6 days in the experimental group with severe lameness and 21.5 days in the control group. A hoof affected with pododermatitis traumatica due to driving a nail and another hoof with white zone disease were complicated with severe deep sepsis. Within 1-2 days after the application of Technovit 6091, the state of burdening was markedly improved by simultaneous treatment with antibiotics every day in both cases.
