Abstract: Canine humeral lateral condyle fracture is a clinically common humeral fracture of the distal humerus. Its incidence rate is second to the supracondylar fracture of the humerus. High incidence is observed in young dogs, and there are no differences in incidence among different canine species. In most cases, it cannot heal itself. Because it is an intra-articular fracture, misdiagnosis, missed diagnosis or improper treatment can cause bone non-union or malunion, resulting in limited elbow joint function and secondary symptoms such as branching and arthritis. The authors summarized the surgical procedure and treatment of a case of canine humeral lateral condyle fracture during clinical diagnosis and treatment, in hoping to provide assistance for the diagnosis and treatment of canine humeral lateral condyle fracture.

Key words: humeral lateral condyle fracture canine
