dc.description.abstract | The experimental study was conducted in 12 backyard poultry birds. The permission was obtained by institutional animal ethical committee IAEC (No. 04/ 2019/ VCB/ VSR). Tibiotarsus bone fractures were created under xylazine-ketamine anaesthesia. These twelve birds were randomly divided into two groups consisting of six birds in each group. In group I, birds having tibiotarsus fracture were treated with internal immobilisation using titanium locking reconstructive bone plate. In group II, birds were treated with internal immobilisation using stainless steel locking reconstructive plate. Xylazine @ 3 to 5 mg/kg BW and ketamine @ 50 to 70 mg/kg BW proved to be a good general anaesthetic combination for fracture repair in poultry. In group I birds showed slight to moderate weight bearing from 7th to 15th post-operative day and good to excellent weight bearing by 30th to 45th post-operative day. While in group II, the birds showed slight to moderate weight bearing from 7th to 15th post-operative day and good to excellent weight bearing from 30th to 45th post-operative day. On an average the weight bearing in birds fixed with both the plates were slightly similar on 45th day. The radiographic evaluation was non-significant in both groups. The fracture healed with minimal callus resembling primary union. Complete cortical union noticed on 45th day in both groups. The biochemical analysis showed non-significant rise in serum inorganic phosphorous and serum alkaline phosphatase on 15th and 30th post-operative days and were within normal limits. The levels returned to base values by 45th post-operative day. The significant rise in serum calcium level on 15th and 30th post-operative days and were within normal limits. The levels returned to base values by 45th post-operative days. | en_US |
