femur fracture in a dog repaired at NIAW, Ballabgarh

this dog was brought to NIAW by the dog handlers team. radiographs were taken to find out the nature of fracture.on the basis of radiographic interpretation it was decided that fracture will be repaired by the external fixator only. the dog was anesthetised under xylazine-isoflurane and external fixator was put. after two days again the x-ray was taken to see the position of external fixator. the dog is on medication and dressing and the frature will be evaluated after 6 weeks to see the healing.
