Shell ulcers were diagnosed based on clinical appearance in 60 turtles. Under general anaesthesia, surgical curettage was performed using a burr mounted on a micro-grinder. A calcium hydroxide paste was applied to the debrided lesions before the application of restorative material. Lesions were completely filled with rapidly hardening silver amalgam. Treated terrapins were hospitalised in dry containers and later were housed in tanks with controlled temperature 24 hours. Fillings were found spontaneously expulsed at various periods after placement. No signs of mercury poisoning or tissue reaction to the prosthesis were apparent.
根据临床表现，对60只乌龟诊断出贝壳溃疡。在全身麻醉下，使用安装在微型研磨机上的钻头进行手术刮除。在应用修复材料之前，将氢氧化钙糊剂应用于清创后的病变处。病变处用快速硬化的银汞合金完全填充。治疗后的龟被安置在干燥的容器中住院，之后被安置在温度可控的水箱中24小时。填充物在放置后的不同时期自发排出。没有明显的汞中毒迹象或对假体的组织反应。
