Abstract

With the evolution of osteosynthesis in Veterinary Medicine, the use of biological techniques such as minimally invasive osteosynthesis (MIO) has been increasingly recommended, which has numerous benefits by having as premise the minimization of iatrogenic trauma to the blood supply and adjacent soft tissues. This review aims to highlight the importance of using the minimally invasive osteosynthesis technique with plaque (MIPO), its advantages and disadvantages and the main surgical approaches performed on the long bones (humerus, radio, femur and tibia) of dogs. MIPO is about placing bone plate through epiperiosteal tunnel, created from two distant incisions to the fracture focus, ensuring its preservation and the muscle envelope that surrounds it. In this way, it promotes stable fixation and restores alignment and bone length, preserving local biology, which contributes to rapid bone consolidation and lower complication rates, showing itself as an excellent alternative to conventional osteosynthesis in long bones of dogs.
