Nocardioform Placentitis - Diagnosis, Management & Outcomes with Dr Maria Schnobrich and Dr Karen Von Dollen

Nocardioform placentitis is a frustrating and sometimes devastating diagnosis in broodmares. In this episode of StallSide, Theriogenologists, Dr. Maria Schnobrich and Dr. Karen Von Dollen take a closer look at how this condition develops, what makes it different from other forms of placentitis, and why early detection is important. They explain how expanding the definition to focal mucoid placentitis better describes this condition, then explore the clinical presentation, diagnostic tools, treatment strategies, and what current research and field experience suggests about prognosis and outcomes. Whether you're managing mares on the farm or supporting breeding operations, this episode offers practical, experience-driven insight into navigating high-risk late-term pregnancies. @roodandriddle Watch episodes on YouTube @roodandriddle or visit us at www.rrvp.com
