A free-ranging, adult male Canada-lynx (Lynx canadensis) experienced a closed, complete, non-comminuted transverse fracture of the left radius and ulna when captured in a leg snare. A dynamic compression plate (DCP) attached to the anterior surface of the radius was used to stabilize the fracture. Radiographs 44 days post-surgery indicated advanced primary bone healing. The lynx was released 46 days post-surgery near the site of capture. Radiotelemetry indicated long-term survival and movements similar to other males monitored during the same period.
一只成年雄性加拿大猞猁(Lynx canadensis)在野外被腿部陷阱捕获时,左侧桡骨和尺骨发生了闭合性、完全性、非粉碎性横骨折。使用一块附着在桡骨前表面的动力加压钢板(DCP)来稳定骨折。术后44天的X光片显示初步骨愈合进展良好。这只猞猁在术后46天于捕获地点附近被放归。无线电遥测显示其长期存活,并且活动情况与同期监测的其他雄性猞猁相似。
