  • Method and device for treating equine hernias
    Patent number: 6651649
    Abstract: A device and method for treating equine hernia wherein a manipulator element is held in place to exert pressure on the affected abdomen to thereby push the bowel into the abdominal cavity. Any movements made by the horse, especially as by the act of walking or exercising, cause the manipulator element to shift slightly and thereby automatically manipulate the hernial ring. Such manipulation serves to expedite the healing process often obviating the need for surgical intervention.
