Use of lag screw fixation for repair of a central tarsal bone fracture in a horse.

D W Ramey.   

Abstract

An 8-year-old Thoroughbred gelding was determined to have a sagittal fracture of the central tarsal bone. Lag screw fixation of the fracture enabled the horse to return to jumping, although degenerative arthritis of the distal intertarsal joint was apparent radiographically 17 months after the injury.
