22 Δεκ 2023 · 1) Any toy breed dog with a radius and ulna fracture should undergo surgical fixation, usually rigid internal fixation, and should not be treated with a cast or a splint.
13 Ιουν 2021 · Traumatic radius and ulna (antebrachial) fractures are common in dogs and cats and often require surgical treatment for optimal outcome (Figure 14.1). The current standard‐of‐care techniques involve open reduction of the fracture and placement of either a bone plate (applied on the cranial or medial radial surfaces) or closed reduction with ...
This series of articles has been presented in 3 parts, with: Part 1 describing fracture biomechanics, classification, and diagnosis. Part 2 discussing selection of fixation technique, external coaptation, identification of bone healing, and potential complications.
Repair of a proximal ulnar fracture using pins and a tension-band wire applied with a parallel drill guide. Following reduction of the fracture and placement of the first pin, the second pin is placed using the parallel drill guide.
18 Ιουλ 2016 · Proximally, the radius articulates with the ulna along its caudal border, which rests within a corresponding concavity in the ulna called the radial notch. Distally, the ulna similarly articulates with the radius along its medial cortex, where it rests within the ulnar notch.
Fractures suitable for conservative treatment include stable undisplaced fractures, greenstick fractures and selected fractures of flat bones or the axial skeleton such as the pelvis, scapula, skull or vertebrae where strong muscular forces act to immobilise the fracture fragments.
Radius and ulna fractures are common in small-breed dogs. These injuries can often affect both forelimbs simultaneously, and these small dogs' fractures have acquired a reputation for being at increased risk of non-union (failure of the bone ends to reunite).
