    Abstract:

    Surgical repair of a fractured tibiotarsus in a scarlet macaw (Ara macao) is described. The forces imposed on the fracture site are discussed and the unique features of avian bone emphasised. Advantages of external skeletal fixation and specific details of the frame construction are highlighted.

    Fractures: Bone Repair

    Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
    Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...
