Distal third metacarpal bone palmar cortical stress fractures in four Thoroughbred racehorses
Stress fractures of the third metacarpal bone (McIII) are a common cause of lameness in Thoroughbred racehorses. The most commonly described location is the mid-dorsolateral cortex (Copelan 1979; Richardson 1984, 1999; Stashak 1987; Stover et al. 1988; Cervantes et al. 1992; Pilsworth and Shepherd 1997; Stover 1998; Sullins 1998), but they also occur distally and proximally in the dorsal cortex...
متن کاملMetacarpal Fractures
The majority of metacarpal fractures are closed injuries amenable to conservative treatment with external immobilization and subsequent rehabilitation. Internal fixation is favored for unstable fracture patterns and patients who require early motion. Percutaneous pinning usually is successful for metacarpal neck fractures and comminuted head fractures. Shaft and base fractures can be treated wi...
متن کاملFractures at the Base of the First Metacarpal Bone.
A variety of fractures occur at the base of the first metacarpal bone, the best known being that described by Bennett in 1882. A group of more comminuted fractures also involving the carpo-metacarpal joint were later described by Rolando (1910). Transverse fractures at the lower end of the metacarpal bone were mentioned by Roberts (1938) in a review of all fractures occurring in the hand. Much ...
متن کاملIntramedullary cortical bone strut improves the cyclic stability of osteoporotic proximal humeral fractures
BACKGROUND Proximal humeral fractures treated with locking plate can fail due to varus collapse, especially in osteoporotic bone with medial cortex comminution. The use of an intramedullary strut together with locking plate fixation may strengthen fixation and provide additional medial support to prevent the varus malalignment. This study biomechanically investigates the influence of an intrame...
متن کاملProximal femoral bone geometry in osteoporotic hip fractures in Thailand.
BACKGROUND A number of different bone geometries have been reported to be correlated with osteoporosis, bone mineral density and fractures. Those correlations are used for diagnosis, treatment and prediction of fracture risk in osteoporosis cases. However there have been no studies of significant bone parameters predicting osteoporosis and hip fracture in Thailand OBJECTIVE To evaluate the co...
