Three separate studies that collectively represent 107 dogs and 52 cats with supracondylar femoral fractures are presented. The animals were treated using a normograde intramedullary pinning technique at the Norwegian School of Veterinary Science during the period 1964 to 1993. The surgical technique involves insertion of one or two intramedullary pins normograde from the stifle joint without passing their proximal end proximal to the level of the femoral neck. The results of treatment were obtained for 73 dogs and 39 cats. Of these cases, 58 dogs (79.5 per cent) and 32 cats (82.1 per cent) were found to be free of lameness after the completion of treatment. Differences in the results of treatment, based on species or size, were not found. Of all cases in which the results of treatment were known (n = 112), complications were recorded in nine animals (8.0 per cent). Infection and instability were the most common complications, affecting four and three cases, respectively.
本文介绍了三项独立的研究，这些研究总共涉及107只犬和52只猫的股骨髁上骨折。1964年至1993年期间，这些动物在挪威兽医学院采用顺行髓内针固定技术进行治疗。手术技术包括从膝关节顺行插入一根或两根髓内针，且髓内针近端不超过股骨颈水平。获得了73只犬和39只猫的治疗结果。在这些病例中，58只犬（79.5%）和32只猫（82.1%）在治疗结束后无跛行。未发现基于物种或体型的治疗结果差异。在所有已知治疗结果的病例（n = 112）中，9只动物（8.0%）出现并发症。感染和不稳定是最常见的并发症，分别影响4例和3例。
