Abstract

In this paper, it was aimed to report the type I Monteggia fracture in a kitten and its treatment results. In clinical examination of a 4-month-old female kitten brought to our clinic with complaints of lameness in the front left leg after automobile trauma it was diagnosed with a fracture in 1/3 proximal diaphyseal of ulna with cranial dislocation of the radial head. Following general anesthesia, ulnar fracture was fixed with intramedullary nail that was sent as anterograde from the processus olecrani, and the reduction of the radius head was easily placed. Then, it was repaired suturing with polypropylene of the ligamentum radii annulare. It was understood that the kitten could use the extremity smoothly and functionally in postoperative 2 months. Consequently, the internal fixation with intramedullary nail was sufficient, and therefore it was thought to be a successful method for type I Monteggia fracture in kittens or cats.

Özet

Bu olgu sunumunda yavru bir kedide karşılaşılan tip I Monteggia kırığı ve tedavi sonuçlarının bildirilmesi amaçlandı. Trafik kazasından sonra ön sol ekstremitesinde topallık şikayeti ile kliniğimize getirilen 4 aylık dişi bir kedi yavrusunun klinik muayenesinde radial başın kraniale dislokasyonu ile ulnanın 1/3 proksimalinde diafizer kırık belirlendi. Genel anestezi altında ulnar kırık processus olecraniden anterograd olarak gönderilen intrameduller çivi ile fikse edildi ve radiusun redüksiyonu kolay bir şekilde gerçekleştirildi. Daha sonra ligamentum radii annulare polypropylene ile dikilerek onarıldı. Postoperatif 2. ay kontrollerinde kedinin ekstremitesini düzgün ve fonksiyonel bir şekilde kullanabildiği görüldü. Sonuç olarak kedi veya yavrularında Monteggia tip I kırıklarında intrameduller çivi ile sağlanan internal fiksasyonun yeterli olduğu ve bu yüzden başarılı bir yöntem olduğu düşünüldü.
