Rib fractures occur most commonly in foals born after dystocia, secondary to natural or iatrogenic trauma, especially in primiparous mares. The cause of thoracic trauma may be focal pressure on the thorax during passage of the foal through the pelvic canal. The surgical treatment for rib fracture repair has been considered by few papers. The purpose of this study was to describe a method, easy to perform and as useful as other techniques, that can provide a stable fixation of fractured ribs, using a tension device that counteracts tension and bending forces.

Abstract

Rib fractures occur most commonly in foals born after dystocia, secondary to natural or iatrogenic trauma, especially in primiparous mares. The cause of thoracic trauma may be focal pressure on the thorax during passage of the foal through the pelvic canal. The surgical treatment for rib fracture repair has been considered by few papers. The purpose of this study was to describe a method, easy to perform and as useful as other techniques, that can provide a stable fixation of fractured ribs, using a tension device that counteracts tension and bending forces.
