SummaryObjectives: To investigate the specificity of anaesthesia of the deep branch of the lateral plantar nerve (DB-LPN).Methods: Twenty horses had DB-LPN anaesthesia performed by a single injection technique as part of a lameness investigation. The mechanical nociceptive threshold (NT) was measured using a handheld force meter at six points on the lateral aspect of the limb: before diagnostic anaesthesia (T0), and at 15 (T15) and 30 (T30) minutes post anaesthesia. Paired t-tests were performed and significance was set at p <0.05. In addition, ten cadaveric limbs were injected with 2.5 ml new methylene blue solution using a single injection technique to evaluate the extent of dye diffusion within the proximal metatarsal region.Results: Compared with T0, there was a significant decrease in NT for all points combined at T15 (p = 0.008) and also at T30 (p = 0.007). There was a significant decrease in NT at T15 on the lateral third metatarsal bone (p = 0.012). At T30 there was a significant decrease in NT at the lateral sesamoid (p = 0.007), lateral third metatarsal bone (p = 0.031), and mid metatarsus (p = 0.033). Four out of 20 horses had a NT greater than 10 N at the lateral heel bulb at T30. In the cadaveric limbs, the total diffusion distance for all limbs (mean ± SD) was 70.4 ± 20.5 mm. Dye surrounded the DB-LPN in all limbs and the lateral plantar nerve (LPN) in nine out of 10 limbs.Clinical significance: Concurrent anaesthesia of the LPN is likely to occur when DBLPN anaesthesia is performed using a single injection technique.
