Tibial fractures are one of the most common type of fracture encountered in canines. This is due to the fact that tibia is covered with minimal muscles, which prones it to fracture. The fracture of tibial bone is quite common in dogs. The tibial diaphysis is a good site to utilize the principals of biologic fracture repair. The principles of biologic fracture repair are to preserve the vascular envelope by being minimally invasive or by not opening the fracture site at all. The clinical case of left tibial fracture of dog was successfully managed surgically and by proper post-surgical therapeutic management. The present report deals with successful management of tibial fracture in dog.
