It is performed to alleviate pain, and is a salvage procedure, reserved for condition where pain can not be alleviated in any other way. It is common in veterinary surgery. Other names are excision arthroplasty of the femoral head and neck, Girdlestone's operation, Girdlestone procedure, and femoral head and neck ostectomy. [citation needed]
Ferroboron (CAS Registry Number 11108–67-1) is a ferroalloy of iron and boron with boron content between 17.5 and 20%. [1] It is manufactured either by carbothermic reduction of boric acid in an electric arc furnace together with carbon steel, or by the aluminothermic reduction of boric acid in the presence of iron.

Soluble boron arranges in steels along grain boundaries. This inhibits the γ-α transformations (austenite to ferrite transformation) by diffusion and therefore increases the hardenability, with an optimal range of ~ 0.0003 to 0.003% B. [1] Additionally Fe 2 B has been found to precipitate at grain boundaries, which may also retard the γ-α transformations . [1]
3D printing is becoming an efficient way to produce artificial bones. First, a bone model is created by means of reconstruction of CAT scan images obtained from the patient. Then the artificial bone materials are used as "filament" for 3D printing. According to the resolution grafts, the 3D bone model would be divided into some layers.
Introduced in 1909 by Martin Kirschner, the wires are now widely used in orthopedics and other types of medical and veterinary surgery. They come in different sizes and are used to hold bone fragments together (pin fixation) or to provide an anchor for skeletal traction. The pins are often driven into the bone through the skin (percutaneous pin ...
This makes a lot of sense, and Dr. Anwary made a lot of commenters rethink giving their dogs any bones. He did clarify one thing in the comments, "Don’t give any bones as a vet recommendation ...
Weight control is often "the single most important thing that we can do to help a dog with arthritis," and "reducing the dog's weight is enough to control all of the symptoms of arthritis in many dogs." [14] With weight control, the goal is to prevent the dog from becoming overweight to reduce mechanical stresses applied to the hip joints. In ...
Iron borides can be formed by thermochemically reacting boron rich compounds on an iron surface to form a mixture of iron borides, in a process known as boriding.There are a number of ways of forming boride coatings, including gas boriding, molten salt boriding, and pack boriding. [6]
