Objectives: To compare the monotonic biomechanical properties and fatigue life of a 5.5‐mm‐broad locking compression plate (5.5 LCP) fixation with a 4.5‐mm‐broad locking compression plate (4.5 LCP) fixation to repair osteotomized equine 3rd metacarpal (MC3) bones. Study Design: In vitro biomechanical testing of paired cadaveric equine MC3 with a middiaphyseal osteotomy, stabilized by 1 of 2 methods for fracture fixation. Animal Population: Fifteen pairs of adult equine cadaveric MC3 bones. Methods: Fifteen pairs of equine MC3 were divided into 3 test groups (5 pairs each) for (1) 4‐point bending single cycle to failure testing, (2) 4‐point bending cyclic fatigue testing, and (3) torsional single cycle to failure testing. An 8‐hole, 5.5 LCP was applied to the dorsal surface of 1 randomly selected bone from each pair and an 8‐hole, 4.5 LCP was applied dorsally to the contralateral bone from each pair using a combination of cortical and locking screws. All plates and screws were applied using standard ASIF techniques. All MC3 bones had middiaphyseal osteotomies. Mean test variable values for each method were compared using a paired t‐test within each group with significance set at P<.05. Results: Mean yield load, yield bending moment, composite rigidity, failure load, and failure bending moment, under 4‐point bending, single cycle to failure, of the 5.5 LCP fixation were significantly greater than those of the 4.5 LCP fixation. Mean cycles to failure in 4‐point bending of the 5.5 LCP fixation (170,535±19,166) was significantly greater than that of the 4.5 LCP fixation (129,629±14,054). Mean yield load, mean composite rigidity, and mean failure load under torsional testing, single cycle to failure was significantly greater for the broad 5.5 LCP fixation compared with the 4.5 LCP fixation. In single cycle to failure under torsion, the mean±SD values for the 5.5 LCP and the 4.5 LCP fixation techniques, respectively, were: yield load, 151.4±19.6 and 97.6±12.1 N m; composite rigidity, 790.3±58.1 and 412.3±28.1 N m/rad; and failure load: 162.1±20.2 and 117.9±14.6 N m. Conclusion: The 5.5 LCP was superior to the 4.5 LCP in resisting static overload forces (palmarodorsal 4‐point bending and torsional) and in resisting cyclic fatigue under palmarodorsal 4‐point bending. Clinical Relevance: These in vitro study results may provide information to aid in selection of an LCP for repair of equine long bone fractures. 相似文献

Objectives— To compare (1) pullout properties between 3.5 mm cortical and locking screws, and (2) mechanical properties and gap displacements between the 3.5 mm broad limited‐contact dynamic compression plate (LC‐DCP), broad dynamic compression plate (DCP), and narrow locking compression plate (LCP), during axial loading of plate‐stabilized diaphyseal fragments with an interfragmentary gap. Study Design— In vitro mechanical testing of implanted polyurethane foam (PUF) hollow cylinders that simulated compact or osteopenic diaphyseal bone. Sample Population— (1) Five cortical and locking screws and (2) 4 PUF‐plate constructs for each plate type; using high‐ and low‐density (0.8 and 0.32 g/cm3) cylinders. Methods— (1) Screws were completely extracted at 5 mm/min. (2) Plated constructs were axially compressed at 300 N/s for 10 cycles from 5 to 355 N to determine gap displacement during physiologic loading, followed by single cycle increasing load to failure. Results— Pullout properties were not different between screw types. All plate constructs had yield loads over 3 times trotting loads. Gap closure occurred with LC‐DCP and DCP constructs, but not LCP constructs. LCP construct properties were most similar to LC‐DCP and DCP construct properties in the low‐density model. Conclusion— All plate systems sustained physiologic limb loads. Only LCP constructs maintained some gap integrity, although LC‐DCP and DCP screws were placed in neutral position. Clinical Relevance— The LCP system is more likely than LC‐DCP and DCP systems, with neutrally positioned screws, to maintain a planned interfragmentary gap, although gap strains range from 0% to 15% across the 2 mm gap during a trot load. 相似文献

Objectives: To compare number of cycles to failure for palmarodorsal 4‐point bending of a modified 5.5 mm broad locking compression plate (M5.5‐LCP) fixation with a 5.5 mm broad LCP (5.5‐LCP) fixation used to repair osteotomized equine third metacarpal (MC3) bones. Study Design: In vitro biomechanical testing. Animal Population: Adult equine cadaveric MC3 bones (n=6 pairs). Methods: An 8‐hole, M5.5‐LCP, obtained by having a 1.0 mm thickness removed from the bone contact portion of the 5.5‐LCP, was applied to the dorsal surface of 1 randomly selected MC3 from each pair, and an 8‐hole, 5.5‐LCP was applied dorsally to the contralateral bone from each pair using a combination of cortical and locking screws. Plates and screws were applied using standard ASIF techniques to MC3 bones with a mid‐diaphyseal osteotomy. MC3 constructs had palmarodorsal 4‐point bending cyclic fatigue testing. Mean cycles to failure for each method were compared using a paired t‐test within each group. Significance was set at P<.05. Results: Mean±SD cycles to failure of the M5.5‐LCP fixation (188,641±17,971) was significantly greater than that of the 5.5‐LCP fixation (166,497±15,539). Conclusion: M5.5‐LCP fixation was superior to 5.5‐LCP fixation of osteotomized equine MC3 bones in resisting cyclic fatigue under palmarodorsal 4‐point bending. Clinical Relevance: This suggests that biological plate fixation is not the ideal choice for osteotomized equine MC3 bones. 相似文献

Seven-hole 3.5 mm broad and 5-hole 4.5 mm narrow dynamic compression plates were applied to paired canine cadaveric tibias in a stable fracture model. Paired tibias were tested to acute failure in rotation and four-point bending, and to fatigue failure in four-point bending. Resistance to screw pullout was measured for three 3.5 mm cortical screws and two 4.5 mm cortical screws inserted in the configurations of the bone plates. All plate-bone systems failed by fracture of the bone through a screw hole. The 3.5 mm plate-bone system was stronger in acute failure in rotation and in four-point bending. There was no difference in stiffness, and no difference in the number of cycles to failure in fatigue testing. Three 3.5 mm screws had greater resistance to pullout than two 4.5 mm screws. Results indicate that the 7-hole 3.5 mm broad dynamic compression plate has a biomechanical advantage over the 5-hole 4.5 mm narrow dynamic compression plate. 相似文献

Objective— To compare the accuracy of reduction and the biomechanical characteristics of canine acetabular osteotomies stabilized with locking versus standard screws in a locking plate. Study Design— Ex vivo biomechanical study. Sample Population— Cadaveric canine hemipelves and corresponding femurs (n=10 paired). Methods— Transverse acetabular osteotomies stabilized with 5‐hole 2.4 mm uniLOCK® reconstruction plates using either 2.4 mm locking monocortical or standard bicortical screw fixation (Synthes® Maxillofacial). Fracture reduction was assessed directly (craniocaudal acetabular width measurements and gross observation) and indirectly (impression casts). All constructs were fatigue‐tested, followed by acute destructive testing. All outcome measures (mean±SD) were evaluated for significance (P<.05) using paired t‐tests. Results— Craniocaudal acetabular diameters before and after fixation were not significantly different (21.9±1.2 and 21.5±1.2 mm; P=.45). No significant differences were observed in acetabular width differences between pre‐ and postoperative fixation between groups (locking ?0.4±0.4 mm; standard ?0.4±0.3 mm; P=.76). Grossly, there was no significant difference in the repairs and impression casts did not reveal a significant (P=.75) difference in congruency between the groups. No significant differences were found in fracture gap between groups either dorsally (locking 0.38±0.23 mm versus standard 0.22±0.05 mm; P=.30) or ventrally (locking 0.80±0.79 mm versus standard 0.35±0.13 mm; P=.23), and maximum change in amplitude dorsally (locking 0.96±2.15 mm versus standard 0.92±0.89 mm; P=.96) or ventrally (locking 2.02±2.93 mm versus standard 0.15±0.81 mm; P=.25). There were no significant differences in stiffness (locking 241±46 N/mm versus standard 283±209 N/mm; P=.64) or load to failure (locking 1077±950 N versus standard 811±248 N; P=.49). Conclusion— No significant differences were found between pelves stabilized with locking monocortical screw fixation or standard bicortical screw fixation with respect to joint congruity, displacement of fracture gap after cyclic loading, construct stiffness, or ultimate load to failure. Clinical Relevance— There is no apparent advantage of locking plate fixation over standard plate fixation of 2‐piece ex vivo acetabular fractures using the 2.4 mm uniLOCK® reconstruction plate. 相似文献

Eyelid squamous cell carcinoma in equine patients often presents a therapeutic challenge to practitioners due to the generally large area affected upon presentation. Surgical excision can be curative if wide enough margins are achieved, but this is not often attainable without enucleation. Other alternatives have been examined including cryotherapy, radiotherapy, brachytherapy, intralesional chemotherapy and photodynamic therapy. Intralesional chemotherapy using cisplatin, mitomycin‐C and bleomycin have been shown to be successful in treating eyelid squamous cell carcinomas but may be prohibitive to some owners due to the cost of therapy. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first case series to illustrate the effectiveness of intralesional 5‐fluoruracil in treating large equine eyelid squamous cell carcinomas. Macroscopic reduction in the size of the affected areas was noted in each case together with regression of clinical signs associated with the mass. This, coupled with the relative inexpensive nature of the procedure, makes this technique an attractive therapy for either primary treatment of eyelid squamous cell carcinoma or as a cytoreductive technique prior to surgical excision. 相似文献

Cowpox virus (CPXV) infections are a sporadic cause of localized or disseminated skin disease in domestic animals and humans in Europe. Rodents are considered the primary reservoir host for CPXV. Cats can become infected by close contact with rodents and are the most important source of human infections. Recently, public awareness has also been drawn to CPXV infections by an outbreak of rat to human infections in central Europe. In dogs, CPXV infections are rare. Here we report a case of a 5‐month‐old Rottweiler with a focal nodule on the muzzle. The lesion was fully excised, and recovery was uneventful. The preliminary diagnosis of a CPXV infection was established by the characteristic inclusion bodies on histopathological examination. The diagnosis was confirmed by electron microscopy and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Sequencing of the PCR product led to a 231 bp sequence of the orthopoxvirus HA gene that was identical to a CPXV strain previously isolated from a cat. This is the third documented case of a canine CPXV infection. 相似文献

Between late December 1999 and late April 2000, three locally bred Friesian calves (ageing 25, 28 and 35 days) in a dairy farm, at Al‐Ahsa locality of the eastern region of Saudi Arabia showed dullness and inappetence. Their rectal temperatures ranged between 41 and 41.5°C. One to 2 days later and onwards, the calves showed lacrimation, nasal discharge, salivation, oedema of the head, conjunctivitis, exo‐ophthalmia and corneal opacity. One calf showed diarrhoea. The superficial lymph nodes were oedematous and swollen. The calves died after 7, 5 and 8 days, respectively, following the onset of the disease. Calves and rabbits were experimentally infected with materials from the naturally infected calves. The rabbits showed fever, mild conjunctivitis and one rabbit showed wet faeces. The experimentally inoculated calves showed rise in temperature and mild symptoms but none of them died. The virus from the naturally infected calves and from the experimentally infected rabbits was identified as malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) virus using both the complement fixation test and the fluorescent antibody test, employing a reference anti‐serum against the WC 11 strain of MCF virus. Serological survey for MCF antibodies in cattle, sheep and goats from the affected farm revealed that 54% of the examined animals were positive. The situation of MCF in Saudi Arabia was discussed in relation to sheep and wild game. This paper constitutes the first report of MCF in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf region. 相似文献
