Abstract

Authors introduce a case of successful orthopedic surgery for humeral fracture of Common buzzard (Buteo buteo). The bird, juvenile male, was rescued due to illegal gun shot in Yeoncheon-Gun, Kyonggi-Do. The external skeletal fixation (ESF) with intramedullary pinning (Tie-in method) using Imex clamps was chosen for this fracture case. The common buzzard was anesthetized with hand made face mask and Isoflurane. In particular, the rescued bird was needed rehabilitating procedures, such as flight training or physical exercise for their survivals in wild habitats. The injured buzzard is successfully recovered without any damage to ligaments and nerves after 6 weeks.
