Fracture Fixation and Implants

This was the only reported case of a Salter-Harris fracture of the accessory carpal bone in a dog.

Implant design and implementation continues to progress, with new innovative designs currently under investigation.

The study by de Bruyn and colleagues in this edition[1] examines the impact of orthogonal plating on these parameters.

The tibial plateau levelling osteotomy (TPLO) procedure was both revolutionary and controversial.

An ESF may be successfully applied for the stabilization of various pelvic fractures in cats.

TCTF associated with Arthrex 3.5 mm STS use in TPLO can contribute to major complications after surgery.

Virtual planning is practical and facilitated acceptable alignment during MIPO.

The findings offer valuable insights for modified treatment approaches in managing fractures in toy breed dogs.

Fluoroscopically guided normograde metabone pinning provides an alternative technique for treatment of metabone fractures.

The reported outcomes of this novel technique are favourable when compared with previous techniques.
