Solve the Veterinary Practice News June 2017 brain teaser

 

Answers

  1. The pin is too long proximally; it's sticking out of the bone distally; the cerclage wire is not around the caudal cortex of the proximal bone fragment.
  2. The main issue is that the pin cannot address the rotational forces in this particular patient.
  3. A plate and screws would better address the forces that apply to the bone, starting with rotational forces.
