Abstract
Twenty four goats with long bone fracture were included in the study and
were divided into four groups and subjected to the surgical procedure. The
incidence of long bone fractures were studied from January Z014 to December
2015 on the surgical cases reported to the Large Animal Surgical Unit, of Madras
Veterinary College Teaching Hospital. There Was an 18 percent incidence of
orthopaedic conditions of the total cases reported and 80.51 per cent incidence of
long bone fracture of the orthopaedic conditions reported. Female animals were
more prone to long hone fracture compared to male animals. There Was no breed-
wise prelidiction. The etiological agent for long bone fracture included
automobile accidents, chasing by dogs, falling from height, falling of heavy
objects. Metacarpus and metatarsal fractures Were more common followed by
tibial, radius and ulnar, femur and humerus in the respective order.
