Abstract:
A cat presented with no weight bearing on the limb with visible limb shortening was diagnosed for diaphyseal femoral after radiographic evaluation. It was operated by Intra-medullary pegging with 2.7mm threaded broken drill bit coated with Poly Methyl Metha Acrylate. PMMA was coated to make pin of appropriate size for the femoral medullary cavity of the cat. Cat recovered uneventfully and weight bearing was restored.
