Abstract : Fractures in dogs can be categorised based on clinical information and radiographic appearance of the fracture. Fracture classification systems like AISF /AO serve as an integral role in elucidating fracture biomechanics, predicting associated soft tissue trauma, and formulating an optimal fixation plan. Based on non-weight bearing lameness on affected limb, aberrant angulation of the limb at the site of fracture, oedema and crepitation at the site of fracture and pain on palpation fracture configuration is done. This is important for the selection of treatment modality.
