Abstract: The present work was done to study the utility of collagen and silicone extracellur matrices embedded with autologous platelet rich plasma for cutaneous wound healing in horses by Macroscopical assessment. The clinical cases of horses were divided into two groups of six animals each (N=6). Group I animals were treated with collagen extracellular matrices embedded with autologous platelet rich plasma and group II animals were treated with silicone foam dressing embedded with autologous platelet rich plasma. Macroscopical evaluation was studied for 0, 5, 15, 30 and 45th day of post treatment period. Macroscopically, changes were observed as sequential changes in group I when compared to group II animals.
