Abstract

This is a report of the surgical technique used to repair a non-displaced, complete sagittal fracture of the talus in a horse utilizing lag screw compression. A review of tarsal fractures in horses along with the history, clinical signs, and diagnostic workup which led to the diagnosis of a previously unreported type of tarsal fracture is presented. The horse presented in this report, returned to race successfully but at a lower level of competition.
