Reluctant to fly. Grabbed to palpate wing. Fx site is solid. Full ROM immediately and no wing droop, but bird seemed a little painful.

Hes able to fly high perch to high perch and theres no droop. Will schedule PT once a week to see if that affects reluctance to fly.

BAR. Velcro wrap intact.

Anesthetized with iso via mask. A bit stiff at first but got full ROM. Fx's are very stable. Rad looks horrible. No change from previous. No sign of bridging callus. Very surprising for a baby.
Removed radius pin anyway as it is very stable.
Did not replace velcro wrap. I still think this will heal.

Plan: continue PT q4d

Very BAR. Anesthetized with iso via mask. PT went well. Full ROM easily. Radiograph did not look great - ulna is displaced, but the wing was straight and felt great, so I think this will work out well. Cleaned pins and small wounds on ventral and dorsal sides. Applied BNP. Covered wound with telfa. Covered radius pin. Applied velcro wrap.

DES - defintely not entirely happy with rad as I thought the radius fx was a simple transverse and I thought we had really good alignment on it. Despite the appearance, I think this will heal well.

MOVED TO: R17C

Food: 90 g chunks mouse/rat

Plan: monitor weight. PT EOD. Removed radius pin in 7 days. Rad at next PT.

Surgery report
Procedure - Fracture repair - ulna and radius
Performed by - des
Surgery time - 17 minutes

Small wound on vental side. Spike of dead bone (1mm) from the
distal end of the ulna thru the skin on the dorsal side. No bruising.
Very scarred and bone ends pretty immobile.
Made incision around the exposed radius end. Removed non-viable
tip with ronguers. I was able to carefully dissect to exposed
both proximal ends and the distal radius end. Many tendons in
this areas and the scarring was severe so decided to NOT go for
the ulna. I leveraged the radius ends against each other to re-establish
length. Placed IM pin in radius, drove distally and exited at
wrist. The pin was a little big - probably should have used a
slightly smaller diameter... Aligned ands and drove pin proximally
after removing the proximal end. Alignment very good. Flushed
and closed skin with 4-0 vicryl. My hope is that the ulna ends
are now close enough to bridge. Applied BNP to pins and suture
line. Covered suture line with tega. Bent the pin back and padded
end. Dressed ventral wound with SSD and tega. Placed a fig-8.
Recovery was quick.
