OrthoLine™ Fracture Management System: Biomechanics

Sean Murphy, DVM, DACVS-SA (Boise, ID), explains the design rationale behind the OrthoLine™ fracture management system and reviews biomechanics.

• Duration 4m

Elbow Incongruity

Misalignment of the radius, ulna, and humerus that disrupts standard joint mechanics, causing uneven load distribution and cartilage wear. Corrective osteotomy may be indicated for severe cases of deformity.
