Surgical pathology of the musculoskeletal system, and in particular the diseases of the limb distal segment
in pigs are quite common. Their significant spread leads to economic losses due to culling, compulsory
slaughter, short-received pig production and pig crop. The purpose of this work was to reveal clinical and
morphological features of limb distal segment diseases in pigs and to study the possibility of preserving
their health and productivity. The conservative treatment of purulonecrotic lesions in the deep structures of
the limb distal segment in pigs is not promising. It is shown that the best way to treat a given pathology is
amputation of a sick limb. The technique of carrying out exarticulation of talus shin consists in separation
of soft tissues, capsule and ligaments, ligation of vessels, formation of stump. The postoperative recovery
period of the animal body is 25 days.
