Time from castration to presentation, diagnostic procedures, surgical complications, bacterial culture and ancillary testing, and survival to discharge were collected. Long\u2010term follow\u2010up was obtained by owner survey when possible. Descriptive statistics were used to report results.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n Horses ranged in age from 2 to 14 years (mean age 4.1) and presented 33 days (median; range, 12\u20103561) after castration. Five of 23 horses required revision surgery because of hemorrhage (2) or persistent infection (3). All horses survived to discharge. Long\u2010term follow up was available for 16 horses at a mean time of 27.4 months postsurgery (range 6\u2010135). Complete resolution of clinical signs and return to previous use was documented in 14 of 16 horses; 1 horse had persistent purulent drainage and a second horse was retired because he did not return to adequate performance.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n Postcastration infection of the spermatic cord had a favorable prognosis for short\u2010 and long\u2010term survival in this population, although complications included postoperative hemorrhage and persistent infection.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Clinical significance<\/jats:title>\n This study describes the treatment of postcastration infection of the spermatic cord which results in a good survival rate.<\/jats:p>\n
