Stabilisation of distal diaphyseal/metaphyseal fractures or osteotomies of the tibia and the radius is challenging due to the small fragment size, with innovative implants and external skeletal fixation systems described for their management. Hybrid external skeletal fixation is a novel external fixation system for use in small animals. This case series describes the management of distal diaphyseal fractures with IMEX-SK hybrid external skeletal fixation in three canine patients. Fracture healing was achieved in all cases, with frame removal after 5 to 10 weeks. Minimal complications were encountered in two cases. IMEX-SK hybrid external skeletal fixation constructs provide the veterinary surgeon with another option in the management of distal diaphyseal/metaphyseal fractures.
由于胫骨和桡骨远端骨干/干骺端骨折或截骨术的碎片尺寸较小，其稳定具有挑战性，目前已有创新型植入物和外骨骼固定系统用于此类治疗。混合式外骨骼固定是一种用于小动物的新型外固定系统。本病例系列描述了3例犬科患者使用IMEX-SK混合式外骨骼固定治疗远端骨干骨折的情况。所有病例均实现骨折愈合，5至10周后拆除固定架。2例出现轻微并发症。IMEX-SK混合式外骨骼固定结构为兽医外科医生治疗远端骨干/干骺端骨折提供了另一种选择。
