Fracture Fixation and Implants

Orthogonal plating offers a strong nonlocking alternative.

Construct D, with OrthoFiber #5, passed straight through the toggle rod eyelet, may provide superior stability and resistance to fatigue failure to toggle-in repairs of coxofemoral luxations.

The results suggested that closed, fluoroscopic-assisted reduction is a proficient and efficient means of stabilising acute unicondylar humeral fractures.

Bilateral twisted string-of-pearls locking plates can be associated with a satisfactory result in treating lumbosacral fracture-luxation.

The use of 3 short LCP should be considered as a strategy to facilitate pancarpal or partial carpal arthrodesis

Preoperative planning and postoperative assessment of TPLO should take into consideration the predisposing factors identified in this study to prevent TTF.

The modified endoprosthetic technique allowed complete excision of the carpal joint, which resulted in acceptable functional outcomes in the dog described here.

The 6 techniques appear equally effective at limiting tibiotarsal joint flexion during single axial loading of 200 N.

A novel titanium implant decreases the tibial traumatisation by reducing the number of screws.

Distal ostectomies may include part of the manus during limb salvage surgery of locally extensive distal radial osteosarcoma and using an endoprosthesis implant to reconstruct the defect.
