Abstract

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to demonstrate the effectiveness of the single transphyseal screw technique in foals diagnosed with carpal valgus deviation. This study included 22 thoroughbred animals of both sexes, with a mean age of 30 days. All animals had a carpal valgus deviation >5° with irregular development of the distal epiphysis of the radius. All animals were surgically treated to correct the carpal valgus deviation by creating a bridge using a single transphyseal screw. Surgical intervention was performed for 40 limbs, comprising 19 right and 21 left thoracic limbs. This corresponded to four animals with carpal valgus deviation >5° in only one of the limbs and 18 with the deviation in both limbs. It was observed that 38/40 treated limbs (95%) achieved normal angulation according to the literature, i.e., angulation between 0° and 5°. No statistical differences were observed between the affected limbs. The single transphyseal screw technique can be used for the correction of carpal valgus deviation in foals. It is indicated in animals with an average age of 30 days (20-55 days), as its main advantages are rapid application, simple execution, and limited trans- and post-surgical complications, making it an effective procedure in thoroughbred foals with carpal valgus angular deviation.

使用单一经骨螺钉植入矫正纯种小马驹腕外翻角度偏差

摘要本研究的目的是证明单次经膝骨螺钉技术在诊断为腕外翻的小马驹中的有效性。这项研究包括22只平均年龄为30天的纯种动物。所有动物的腕外翻偏差均大于5°，桡骨远端骨骺发育不规则。所有动物都接受了手术治疗，通过使用单一的经骨螺钉制作桥接器来矫正腕外翻。对40个肢体进行了手术干预，包括19个右侧和21个左侧胸廓肢体。这相当于4只动物的腕外翻偏差仅在一条肢体>5°，18只动物的双臂出现偏差。据观察，根据文献，38/40例接受治疗的肢体（95%）达到了正常的角度，即角度在0°至5°之间。受影响的肢体之间没有观察到统计学差异。单枚经骨螺钉技术可用于矫正小马驹腕外翻畸形。它适用于平均年龄为30天（20-55天）的动物，因为它的主要优点是应用迅速、执行简单、术后和术后并发症有限，这使它成为治疗腕外翻角偏离的纯种小马驹的有效方法。
