A 6 month old "Lab Puppy" was hit by a vehicle 3 months ago. She suffered a comminuted (multiple breaks) humerus fracture in the front leg. She had a lot of soft tissue swelling and bruising in the surrounding muscle layers.
Three months after an external fixation device was placed with a central I.M. pin, and bone graft from her hip bone...her leg has healed and we removed the implants.
Her healing over three months was quick because the owners did a great job in home care and reporting any problems she had right away. Way to go!!
