This retrospective study analyzed the prevalence, etiology, and treatment methods of limb fractures in 288 cats that were admitted to the XXXX University Animal Health Application and Research Hospital between 2018 and 2023 with trauma-related fractures. The findings revealed that the most common fractures occurred in the femur (47.91%), tibia-fibula (22.56%), and humerus (11.45%). It was determined that 56.25% of the fractures were caused by unknown traumas, 23.95% by falls, and 19.79% by traffic accidents. In terms of treatment approaches, surgical intervention was preferred in complex cases, while cage rest and medical treatment were chosen for simpler fractures. Surgical treatment was applied in 54.3% of femur fractures and 67.6% of tibia-fibula fractures. These findings highlight that the fracture type and severity are key factors in determining the appropriate treatment strategy for feline limb fractures. The study concludes that developing individualized treatment plans is crucial for effective fracture management and overall patient care.
