An open, contaminated, comminuted fracture of the radius of a 500-kg adult horse was diagnosed. Antibiotic-impregnated polymethyl methacrylate implants were placed into the fracture site to help eliminate infection from the limb. Later in the course of treatment, lag screws were placed across the fracture to generate compression and healing. The fracture healed, and the horse was released to its owners. The implants were not removed, and only a mild lameness existed 90 days later.
诊断出一匹500公斤重成年马的桡骨开放性、污染性、粉碎性骨折。将含抗生素的聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯植入物置于骨折部位，以帮助消除肢体感染。在治疗过程后期，通过骨折部位置入拉力螺钉以产生加压促进愈合。骨折愈合后，这匹马被归还给其主人。植入物未取出，90天后仅存在轻度跛行。
