[Tension band wiring of canine and feline supracondylar epiphyseal femoral fractures (author's transl)]. 1978

B Schantz

The present investigation describes the treatment of 27 cases of canine and feline supracondylar epiphyseal--metaphyseal femoral fractures with tension band wire. The wire was passed through transversal parallell drill holes, one in each fragment. The wires intercrossed dorsally. Stable fixation followed tightening of the wires. 20 out of 25 primarily successful cases were re-examined. 19 were completely well. One case showed a slight transient lameness following hard exercise.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.
