Abstract
The present study was conducted to evaluate biochemical parameters like serum calcium, phosphorus and alkaline phosphatase during long bones fracture healing in six dogs, which were stabilized with string of pearls (SOP) plate. Statistical analysis revealed no significant variation (P<0.05) in these parameters during the entire period of healing and the values were within the normal range.
Keywords: Fracture, serum biochemistry, string of pearls
