The purpose of this study was to report the clinical outcome after the use of an UniLOCKimplant for stabilization of long-bone fractures in cats. UniLOCKimplants were used in long bone fractures (n=11) in ten client-owned cats. Data about the signalment (breed, weight, age) and history, characteristics of the fracture, details of the surgery and perioperative complications were recorded. Salter-Harris type I and II fractures in the four cats were recorded, operated upon and contralateral stifle joint ROM values with manuel goniometer and the differences between these values were determined. We evaluated the functional and radiological outcomes on 10th, 30th, 60th, and 90th days postoperatively. The final clinical and radiographic evaluation was performed after 12 months in all cases. The clinical outcome was excellent in nine cases, and good in one case. As a result of the postoperative trauma, stabilization of the implant was affected and an exuberant callus formation was encountered in the case 5 and the implants were removed immediately. Eight cats started using the limb immediately after waking up from anesthesia whereas initial limb use was 2-3 days after repair in the other cats. In conclusion, that the high success rate (90%) associated with a functional outcome suggests that the UniLOCK plate can be used in cats for long-bone fractures in cats

Bu çalışmanın amacı, kedilerin uzun kemik kırıklarının stabilizasyonunda UniLOCK implantların kullanımının klinik sonuçlarını sunmaktır. UniLOCK implantları 10 sahipli kedinin 11 uzun kemik kırığında kullanıldı. Hastanın eşgali (ırk, ağırlık, yaş) ve anamnezi, kırığın yapısı, operasyon detayları ve perioperatif komplikasyonlar kaydedildi. Salter-Harris tip I ve II kırığı bulunan 4 kedinin, opere edilen ve kontralateraldeki diz eklemi hareket aralığı değerleri manuel goniometre ile ölçülerek değerler arasındaki farklar kaydedildi. Postoperatif 10., 30., 60. ve 90. günlerde fonksiyonel ve radyolojik sonuçlar değerlendirildi. Tüm olgularda klinik ve radyolojik son değerlendirme postoperatif 12. ayda yapıldı. Klinik sonuçlar 9 olguda mükemmel, 1 olguda iyi idi. Olgu 5’in postoperatif aldığı travmanın sonucu olarak implant stabilizasyonunun etkilendiği görüldü ve eksuberant kallus yapısıyla karşılaşıldı; implantlar hemen uzaklaştırıldı. Sekiz kedi anesteziden uyandıktan hemen sonra, diğerleri ise operasyondan 2-3 gün sonra ilgili ekstemitelerini kullanmaya başladı. Sonuç olarak, kedilerin uzun kemik kırıklarında fonksiyonel sonuçlarla ilişkili yüksek başarı oranı (%90) nedeniyle UniLOCK implantların kullanılabileceği sonucuna varıldı
