Abstract

A 2-year-old Thoroughbred racehorse had LF lameness that began post high-speed exercise and persisted for two days before the horse once again became sound. Diagnostic analgesia localized the lameness to the LF distal metacarpus, and a standing MRI identified a unicortical condylar fracture. A single 5.5 mm cortical screw was placed in lag fashion. The horse began hand walking at 14 days, racetrack jogging at 30 days, and racing at 5 months after the day of surgery. Placement of a single lag screw ahead of the tip of the crack in unicortical condylar fracture may be useful for reducing the recovery period for horses returning to training and racing.

一匹患有单皮质掌外侧髁骨折的纯种赛马在手术后14天恢复训练:一项关于单个骨螺钉在裂纹扩展中作用的假设。
一匹2岁的纯种赛马患有LF跛行,在高速运动后开始,持续了两天,马才再次恢复健康。诊断性镇痛将跛行定位在左前掌骨远端,站立MRI确定为单皮质髁状突骨折。以滞后方式放置单个5.5mm皮质螺钉。马在14天开始徒手行走,30天开始在跑道上慢跑,手术后5个月开始比赛。在单皮质髁突骨折的裂尖前放置一个拉力螺钉可能有助于缩短马匹重返训练和比赛的恢复期。
