'''A Limousin bull presents with severe (10/10) lameness of the left pelvic limb with marked muscle atrophy over the left hip. The left hindfoot is swollen with marked widening of the inter - digital space. There is loss of hair and thinning of the skin extending all around the coronary band of the lateral claw extending proximally for 3 cm with a discharging sinus consistent with septic pedal arthritis.'''

|q1=Describe the method of analgesia you would employ for the procedure illustrated here
|a1=
The procedure shown is digit amputation under intravenous regional anaesthesia. Flunixin meglumine (or other NSAID) is injected intravenously before surgery. A robust tourniquet is placed below the hock and 30–40 mL of 2% lidocaine solution is injected into the superficial vein running on the cranio - lateral aspect of the third metatarsal bone (butterfly catheter shown in situ). Analgesia is effective within 2 minutes.

|q2=How would you complete the procedure shown?
|a2=
The interdigital skin is incised as close to the infected tissue as possible and the incision extended for the full length of the interdigital space to a depth of 2 cm cranially increasing to 4 cm caudally. A length of embryotomy wire is introduced into the incision and the lateral digit removed at the level of mid P2 (wire at 15° to horizontal). A melolin dressing (or similar) is applied to the wound then cotton wool and a pressure bandage applied using Elastoplast (or similar). The dressing is changed after 4 days. The bull made a full recovery and is still in the herd 18 months later.
<br>
If infection in the deep flexor tendon sheath has extended above the amputation site, 10–15 cm of flexor tendon can be removed to effect drainage.
