The patient was presented for a fractured leg. A high-resolution Computed Tomography of the right distal tibia and fibula was performed; bone window plain and post contrast series images were obtained.

There was a moderate soft tissue swelling circumferential to the distal tibia and fibula of the right hind limb. A short spiraling tibia fracture and short transverse fibula fracture both within the distal aspect of the distal diaphysis were noted. The fracture margins were sharply delineated. The fracture margins presented proximodistal overlapping emphasizing the caudal cortices which resulted in a 30° deviation of the limb axis. Several small isolated bone fragments were associated with the tibia fracture. Early periosteal reactions were seen at the fracture edges. The distal tibial and fibular epiphysis and the tarsal bones presented homogenous demineralization. The distal tibial physis presented irregular narrowing and mild new bone formation.
