Effect of Metallic Implant on the Risk of Bacterial Osteomyelitis in Small Animals

Soontornvipart K., A. Neaas, M. Dvofiak: Effects of Metallic Implant on the Risk of Bacterial Osteomyelitis in Small Animals . Acta Vet. Brno 2003, 72: 235-247. Metallic implants are frequently used for stabilization of fractures in dogs and cats. Postoperative bacterial osteomyelitis is a recognized complication following fracture repair and can be influenced by the presence of metallic implants. Metallic implants influence susceptibility to infection through several mechanisms, including corrosion, adherence of biofilm, isolation from the immune response, and compromise of blood supply. Factors that should be considered when using metallic implants include antibiotic prophylaxis, appropriate implant selection, meticulous surgical technique and proper aseptic technique.
