Dual Effects of Camel Bone (Bony Shuttle Pin) as Splint for Femoral Fractures and the Bone Marrow of Goats

Bony pin splints were obtained from slaughtered camel metacarpal bone and used successfully as intramedullary shuttle pin splint for repair of induced femoral fractures in 12 Goats without any additional external splint. Round pins were made from metacarpal bone of healthy and freshly Slaughtered camel. The bones were cleaned properly and cut with an electric saw into proper width slats, and then with an electric grindstone.

Different sizes of pins were made with notch in one of its ends. The bony Shuttle pins were wrapped in papers and autoclaved for 30 min. at 121ċ. Pins of different lengths and diameters were sterilized and some of these Splints were re sterilized many times and kept in a closed surgical drum ready to be used.
