The study aimed to assess the prevalence of contralateral humeral intracondylar fractures (HIF) in French Bulldogs with humeral condylar fractures (HCF) and review treatment outcomes.
Out of 89 French Bulldogs with HCF, 36 were found to have HIF, and surgical repair was performed on all; 20 of these received a prophylactic screw, although some experienced complications.
The long-term outcomes showed that most owners rated their dogs' recovery as excellent or good, highlighting the importance of considering HIF when treating HCF in this breed.
