dc.description.abstract | In equine medicine, surgical procedures and implants have been significantly developed in
the last few decades. In this paper, we will deal with tensile screw fracture treatments. Horse
fracture treatments most often follow human and small animal principles, so in general, their
innovation also comes from these areas. Therefore, absorbable screws, which are already
used in human medicine, also raise the possibility of their use in equine medicine. Among
other things, these screws reduce the number of surgical procedures since the implant does
not need to be removed later, thus reducing the cost of surgery and the risk of possible septic
complications[29]. | en_US |
