Case Report: Treatment of Femoral Non-union With Rib and Iliac Crest Autografts and rhBMP-2 in a Cat

A 5-year-old, intact male Bengal cat weighing 5.2 kg was referred for the fixation failure of a right femoral fracture. Multiple surgical revisions failed, and atrophic non-union was diagnosed. The cat was then admitted for a final revision surgery using locking plate fixation in conjunction with ri...
