Gorse (1998) stated proximal fractures of the tibia are least common (7%). A number of fixation methods are available for tibial shaft fracture repair, each of which has differing advantages and disadvantages. The chosen method of fixation should achieve adequate alignment and stability of the fragments for the duration of the healing period. In puppies and kittens under 6 months of age crossed Kirschner wires are used for fixation of distal femoral fractures (Sumner-Smith and Dingwall, 1973). The present case study successfully managed by cross pinning of proximal tibial fracture in a dog.EnglishVeterinary ScienceSURGICAL MANAGEMENT OF PROXIMAL TIBIAL FRACTURE IN A SPITZ: A CASE REPORTIndian Journal of Field VeterinariansArticle
