Study Design Mechanical study. Sample Population Cadaveric cat pelvii (n = 10). Methods Feline ilial fractures (n = 20) stabilized with either P or P + P were subjected to 100 nondestructive load cycles, then loaded to failure. Deformation after cycling, yield load and displacement, stiffness and load at 2 mm of displacement were compared between groups. Results There were no significant differences between groups for any of the parameters. Variability of data was much larger for the P + P group. Conclusions No biomechanical advantage was demonstrated. The P + P constructs were not significantly stronger than plates alone in this acutely loaded cadaveric model.}, number={2}, journal={VETERINARY SURGERY}, author={Krebs, Renee C. and Roe, Simon C. and Lascelles, B.

Study Design— Ex vivo mechanical evaluation on cadaveric bones. Sample Population— Canine ulnae (n=40) with olecranon osteotomies repaired with 2 K‐wires and 1 of 4 TBW constructs. Methods— Single load to failure applied through the triceps tendon. Displacement was measured from images captured from digital video. Techniques were compared based on the load resisted when the olecranon fragment was displaced 0.5, 1, and 2 mm. Results— At 0.5 mm of displacement, the DISL construct resisted more load than the AOW construct (505 versus 350 N; P =.05). AO and DL constructs resisted an intermediate load (345 and 330 N, respectively). There was no significant difference between groups at 1 mm of displacement. At 2 mm of displacement, DL (785 N) resisted more load than AO (522 N, P =.01) and AOW (492 N, P =.03) groups. Conclusions— DISL constructs provided similar stability to classic TBW constructs whereas DL constructs were more stable at higher loads. Clinical Relevance— The DL construct is easy to perform, less bulky, and provides comparable fragment stability to standard TBW techniques at functional loads. Surgical method is important for optimal performance of all TBW constructs.}, number={2}, journal={VETERINARY SURGERY}, author={Grafinger, Michael S. and Roe, Simon C. and Spodnick, Gary and Smith, Eric S.}, year={2007}, month={Feb}, pages={141–148} } @article{stamper_norton_spodnick_marti_loomis_1999, title={Hypospadias in a polar bear (Ursus maritimus).}, volume={30}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine}, author={Stamper, M.
