Abstract:
Biochemical parameters like serum calcium, inorganic phosphorus, C-reactive protein and alkaline phosphatase were evaluated during fracture healing in 6 young dogs after stabilizing radius or tibial fractures by Elastic Plate Osteosynthesis technique using 2.0/2.7 mm Veterinary Cuttable Plate. Statistical analysis revealed a highly significant difference (P<0.01) in serum calcium and serum alkaline phosphatase values in different stages of postoperative intervals. There was no significant variation in serum phosphorus level post-operatively and the values were within the normal range.
