Screw fixation in lag fashion of equine cadaveric metacarpal and metatarsal condylar bone specimens: a biomechanical comparison of shaft and cortex screws.
To compare acute fixation stability and insertion effort of cortex bone screws with and without a shaft inserted in lag fashion in equine metacarpal (metatarsal, MC(T)III) bone. ⋯ Cortex bone screws with a shaft inserted in lag fashion should be considered for the fixation of equine MC(T)III condylar fractures.
