New concepts in wound management.
Veterinarians encounter all types of wounds--from the simple clean laceration in an area of the body where it is easily repaired, to the massive infected wound in an area of the body where repair is quite difficult and involved.

"wounds are still lathered, bathed, and sprayed with various notions, potions, and lotions".
