Abstract
An one year old male rabbit was presented which was unable to walk since two days. On examination of the rabbit revealed inability to stand on its right hind limb and crepitus on palpation was noticed at right tibial region. Survey radiograph revealed complete oblique fracture of the tibial bone. The fracture was stabilized by Intramedullary pinning with cerclage wiring under General anaesthesia and immobilized with Robert Jones bandage. Rabbit recovered uneventfully and was able to walk after 30 days of surgery.
