Sekuru

Sekuru was hit by a car in November and was brought into the Surgery. After being given emergency treatment for shock, subsequent x-rays showed that he had fractured the radius and ulna of his right front leg.

Once we were happy with Sekuru's condition, Graham repaired the fracture using the application of an external fixator. This is a combination of internal and external metalwork to keep the bone in place.

After 9 weeks, while his owners did everything they could to prevent Sukuru from being too active, the metalwork was removed; the fracture had healed satisfactorily.
