| dc.description.abstract | The femoral fracture incidence from March 2021-22 and March 2022-23 was 47.73% and 52.27% respectively. Twenty-four clinical cases divided into four groups. The femoral fractures in dogs of group I were repaired using mALPS plating, group II were repaired by PAX plating, group III were repaired using mALPS plate-rod construct and group IV were repaired with PAX plate-rod construct. The healing of the fractures was studied at intervals of 0th, 15th, 30th, 60th and 90th post-operative days based on clinical, biochemical ad radiological analysis. Radiographic evaluation revealed that, fracture healing was slightly better in PAX plate, when compared to mALPS and the comparison between the mALPS - PRC and the PAX - PRC revealed that PAX – PRC has slightly more rigid fixation when compared to mALPS – PRC. Dog’s performance in fracture healing techniques PAX plating, PRC – PAX, PRC – mALPS and mALPS plating groups showed better weight-bearing on the fractured limb while standing, immediately after the surgical repair. Functional limb usage was considered satisfactory in dogs of all the groups with the exception of four dogs which incurred post-operative complication. Lameness grading in all the groups showed that PAX had a statistically superior healing time in both PRC and plating techniques when compared with mALPS. The biochemical parameters namely viz., serum alkaline phosphatase and calcium were significantly increased during the post-operative period whereas, serum phosphorous remained normal physiological limits. | |
