Fracture Fixation and Implants

Biomechanical evaluation of two dorsal and two ventral stabilization techniques for atlantoaxial joint instability in toy-breed dogs

These stabilization techniques increased rigidity.

Repair of Fractures of the Lateral Aspect of the Humeral Condyle in Skeletally Mature Dogs with Locking and Non-Locking Plates

Repair has a good perioperative, mid- and long-term outcome.

Combined internal fixation and transarticular external skeletal fixation to treat traumatic patellar fractures in five dogs

A combination of internal fixation and TA-ESF is a valid treatment option.

Biomechanical comparison of humeral condyles with experimental intracondylar fissures immobilized with a transcondylar positional or a lag screw: An ex-vivo study in dogs

A transcondylar lag screw and positional screw are not biomechanically equal.

Influence of Screw-Hole Defect Size on the Biomechanical Properties of Feline Femora in an Ex Vivo Model

Screw-hole defects up to 2.7 mm did not significantly reduce feline bone failure properties.

Infection rate treating radial and ulnar fractures using bone plate fixation without antibiotic prophylaxis

All patients had a good clinical outcome.

Evaluation of depth gauge accuracy in a canine tibial plateau leveling osteotomy model

Depth gauges lacked accuracy.

A Retrospective Study of Postoperative Development of Implant-Induced Osteoporosis in Radial-Ulnar Fractures in Toy Breed Dogs Treated with Plate Fixation

This study suggests that IIO occurs in small dogs treated with plates and screws.

A review of minimally invasive fracture stabilization in dogs and cats

MIO can yield excellent outcomes when applied in carefully selected cases.

Clinical outcomes of orthogonal plating to treat radial and ulnar fractures in toy-breed dogs

OP allowed the successful open reduction of radial and ulnar fractures.
