Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how the Vertek aiming device (VAD) affects the accuracy of drilling for surgery on the distal sesamoid bone (DSB) in equine cadaver specimens.
- A total of 30 paired limbs from 15 horses were tested using two methods: traditional free-hand drilling and assisted drilling with the VAD, comparing the resulting accuracy of the bone tunnels created.
- Results showed that the VAD significantly improved the accuracy of the drilling process, with lower surgical accuracy aberrations in the VAD group compared to the free-hand group, suggesting its potential usefulness in surgical settings for DSB fracture repairs.
