Discuss in detail the procedure to repair femur fracture in an adult Murrah Buffalo.
Repairing a femur fracture in an adult Murrah buffalo is challenging due to its size and weight. Under general anesthesia, the limb is aseptically prepared and a lateral surgical approach exposes the fracture. Fragments are reduced with traction and manipulation. Fixation is achieved mainly with large orthopedic plates (e.g., dynamic compression plates) secured by multiple screws; in some cases, intramedullary pinning with additional support may be used. Closure is done in layers. Post-operative care includes stall rest, analgesics, antibiotics, and gradual rehabilitation. External coaptation is rarely effective in adult buffaloes, making stable internal fixation critical for recovery.
