Fracture Fixation and Implants

Fracture of the distal femoral physis was the most common physeal fracture seen.

36 weeks after initial surgery, the dog had returned to normal function.

Pes varus deformity can be corrected by wedge osteotomy of the distal tibia stabilised by HES.

Femoral endoprosthesis and a TKR prosthesis can be a viable alternative for distal femoral limb salvage in cats.

The application of T-PLP resulted in adequate stabilization.

Gunshot fractures overall have high likelihood of poor outcome.

Although mechanical differences were identified in four-point bending, in vivo biomechanical performance remains undetermined.

CT evaluation provides a useful method for the assessment of sacroiliac reduction.

These results demonstrate lower construct strength of the Pin-TBW construct.

The use of locking plates reduces the risk of the screw loosening.
