This study was performed to report etiology, clinical presentation, and outcome of mandibular fractures in immature dogs treated with non-invasive or minimally invasive techniques. Immature dogs diagnosed with mandibular fractures from 2001 to 2016 were included in this study. Diagnosis of the...

Objective: The aim of this study was to categorize the presentation, management, complications and long-term outcome of canine acetabular fractures, and to determine the factors affecting outcome. Materials and Methods: Case records and imaging for dogs with acetabular fractures were reviewed with...

Background: Root canal therapy has decreased morbidity compared to extraction, but it is underutilised in the first opinion practice due to assumed skill and knowledge requirements. Fractures of ferret (Mustela putorius furo) canines are common due to their anatomy and function. Penetration of...

Previous work suggests that the tooth height to diameter ratio (H/D) may have an influence on the fracture resistance of dog canine teeth. Thus, it can be hypothesized that canine teeth with distal abrasion or teeth already requiring pulpal manipulation may benefit from a reduction in height and...

Background: Radiation therapy (RT) is used for local pain alleviation in dogs with appendicular osteosarcoma (OS), especially among dogs that are poor surgical candidates for amputation. However, many historical reports of fractionated protocols lack time to fracture and fracture rates. Objectives...

Intramedullary (IM) pinning is a biological method of fracture fixation; but is associated with complications of pin migration, proximal fragment collapse and rotational instability. The study aimed to design double threaded (DT) IM pin and evaluated its biomechanical resistance to axial...

Medical records from 4 private practice veterinary dentistry specialty clinics were reviewed for a 5-year period (2013-2018) to identify dogs that had a fractured canine tooth treated by root canal therapy and returned for subsequent follow-up evaluation. Evaluation criteria included the presence...

The objective of this study was to determine the success of the natural crowns of endodontically treated canine teeth in pet dogs, instrumented and obturated using rotary driven non-taper nickel titanium files, through an occlusal access preparation, without the placement of a prosthetic cast metal ...

Objective: To report the surgical management, complications, and short-term outcomes for dogs with humeral Y-T fractures (ie, fractures affecting the medial and lateral aspect of the humeral condyle extending from the articular surface) that had been approached bilaterally (medial and lateral) and...

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence, breed predisposition and fracture conformation of humeral condylar fractures (HCF) over a 10-year period. Results were compared with published studies emanating from the United Kingdom exploring effect of breed on HCF. Methods:...
