The present study was conducted in two stages. The stage I consisted of study on prevalence of fracture cases in animals at 15 different veterinary hospitals of North-Karnataka region for 4 years. Whereas, stage II study was carried out on twenty four clinical cases of dogs which had femoral fracture were randomly divided into three groups viz., group I, II and III with eight animals in each group. Group I, II and III animals were treated with DCP, LCP and IILN techniques respectively. The prevalence of fracture among the different species, it was highest in canine (35.66%) species, with highest in male dogs (73.01%) and in other species it was with female animals (75.38%). In stage II, healing of fractures was studied before operation, immediately after operation, 30th, 60th and 90th post-operative days in 3 groups. Based on clinical, haemato-biochemical and radiological findings, it was concluded that, DCP and dynamic IILN technique was found effective for repair of short oblique/transverse/transverse without dentate and LCP and static IILN technique for long oblique/spiral/transverse dentate/comminuted femoral fractures in canines respectively.
