title: [Ulna growth retardation syndrome in the dog].
abstract: Premature closure of the distal ulnar physis leads to medial bowing of the radius, later to lateral deviation of the carpus, and ventral subluxation of the elbow. Diagnosis of this growth disturbance depends on accurate radiographical examination. There are different surgical treatments to allow the radius to grow without impediment. The prognosis depends on early treatment.
