Abstract
AbstractA 6‐year‐old outdoor cat presenting with a progressive 5‐month duration right thoracic limb lameness was diagnosed with an articular fracture of the distal caudomedial part of the right humeral condyle. Surgical repair was performed via the modified Wendelburg caudomedial approach to the elbow using a positional screw to reduce the fragment and applying a temporary transarticular external skeletal fixator. Three weeks after surgery, the transarticular external fixator was removed and 6 weeks after surgery, a CT scan was performed revealing satisfactory bone healing. Eight months after the surgery, the cat had no lameness and a normal level of exercise.
