Fractures of the distal radius in two horses were repaired by open reduction and interfragmentary compression using screws placed in a lag fashion. One horse had a complete oblique fracture of the medial aspect of the epiphysis of the distal radius and was sound for riding 32 months after surgery. The other horse had an open spiral comminuted fracture with medial displacement of the distal radial fragment. Laminitis developed in the contralateral limb and this horse was euthanatized 5 weeks after surgery.
两匹马的桡骨远端骨折采用切开复位并用螺钉以拉力方式进行骨折块间加压固定修复。一匹马的桡骨远端骨骺内侧有一完全斜形骨折，术后32个月能正常骑行。另一匹马有一开放性螺旋粉碎性骨折，桡骨远端骨折块向内侧移位。对侧肢体发生了蹄叶炎，这匹马在术后5周实施了安乐死。
