This report describes the treatment of traumatic carpal hyperextension in a giant breed dog by pancarpal arthrodesis using a custom-made Fixin locking plate, created with the aid of a three-dimensional plastic model of the bones of the antebrachium produced by rapid prototyping technology. A three-year-old 104 kg male Mastiff dog was admitted for treatment of carpal hyperextension injury. After diagnosis of carpal instability, surgery was recommended. Computed tomography images were used to create a life-size three-dimensional plastic model of the forelimb. The model was used as the basis for constructing a customized 12-hole Fixin locking plate. The plate was used to attain successful pancarpal arthrodesis in the animal. Radiographic examination after 74 and 140 days revealed signs of osseous union of the arthrodesis. Further clinical and radiographic follow-up examination three years later did not reveal any changes in implant position or complications.
本报告描述了一只大型犬创伤性腕关节过度伸展的治疗情况，采用定制的Fixin锁定钢板进行全腕关节融合术，该钢板借助快速成型技术制作的前臂骨骼三维塑料模型辅助创建。一只3岁、体重104公斤的雄性獒犬因腕关节过度伸展损伤入院治疗。诊断为腕关节不稳定后，建议进行手术。利用计算机断层扫描图像创建了前肢的实物大小三维塑料模型。该模型被用作构建定制的12孔Fixin锁定钢板的基础。该钢板用于在动物身上成功实现全腕关节融合术。术后74天和140天的放射学检查显示融合部位有骨愈合迹象。三年后的进一步临床和放射学随访检查未发现植入物位置有任何变化或并发症。
