Suspected multipartite patella in a Pomeranian dog successfully treated with osteochondral debridement, cerclage suture and transarticular external skeletal fixation

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, August 2026.
Abstract A 4‐year‐old, male, neutered Pomeranian presented with a 3‐week history of an acute‐onset Grade 3/5 left pelvic limb lameness, with no reported history of trauma. Radiographic and computed tomographic studies revealed separation of the left patella into multiple small variably sized, minimally displaced, bony fragments, with rounded margins. A

Low Profile, High Impact: External Fixation using Locking Plates in Challenging Tibial Fractures

Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports
Introduction: Treating metadiaphyseal tibial fractures with compromised soft tissues remains a surgical challenge. While traditional external fixators are widely used, locking compression plates (LCPs) applied externally as fixators offer a promising ...

A Novel Uni- and Biplanar External Fixator for Initial and Definitive Complex Foot Trauma

Foot & Ankle Orthopaedics
Background: Evidence concerning the complex foot trauma, especially its definitive management, is scarce. Soft tissue envelope sequalae are the primary parameters that delay or make internal fixation implausible.
