In vitro comparison of linear vs triangular screw configuration to stabilize complete uniarticular parasagittal fractures of the proximal phalanx in horses
ConclusionRepair of uniarticular complete parasagittal fractures with a triangular screw configuration improved in vitro fracture gap reduction and stability.Clinical significanceTriangular lag screw repair likely improves biomechanical conditions during postoperative weight bearing.
