A 5-year-old American Miniature Horse mare presented with dystocia and was successfully treated, recovering with mild hindlimb instability.
An approximately 5-year-old American Miniature Horse mare presented for dystocia of several hours' duration. Upon arrival she was in sternal recumbency and unable to stand, with both pelvic limbs splayed perpendicular to her body. The mare was induced under general anaesthesia and a controlled vaginal delivery with partial fetotomy was performed. After resolution of the dystocia, the mare could not stand without support but was able to bear weight and ambulate with her hind legs hobbled. The mare was diagnosed with bilateral obturator neuropathy following radiographs to rule out orthopaedic injury. She was hobbled, confined for 24 h, and treated with corticosteroids, anti-inflammatories and antibiotics. After 24 h, the mare could comfortably bear weight, and after 96 h she could walk without hobbles. She was discharged 6 days after admission with only mild lateral hindlimb instability.
