Figure 10-12 • Multiple fractures, one of which becomes a malunion. A, Orientation view of the right wing of a snowy owl shows an
overridden articular fracture of the radial head and a comminuted gunshot fracture of the ulnar midshaft. Both fractures are also shown
close-up (B and C). The injuries were treated with a body wrap and radiographed again 2 months later, at which time the ulnar fracture was
deemed healed, albeit as a malunion (C). Healing of the radial fracture was delayed but eventually healed as well.
