                    Figure 10-10 • A, One-month progress ventrodorsal and leading edge (B) views of the left wing of a great gray owl, which shattered its


                    shoulder against a power line. In this type of external fixation, the transdermal pins are fixed to the bone internally and to bone cement
                    externally. Although the fractured proximal humerus has partially healed, it remains subluxated, while the glenoid has become arthritic.
