-Abstract
Surgical exp < /strong>osure of the femur in dogs was studied from the lateral and medial aspects of the thigh. The preferable approach for surgical exposu re of the femur is from the lateral aspect of the thigh along its whole length between the biceps femoris and Vastus lateralis. From the medial aspect of the thigh exposure of the femur at its distal ball between the tendon of pectineus muscle and vastus media lis is easier than that at the proximal half between the fleshy p < strong>art of the pectineus mus scle and the adductor muscle. In cases of simple shaft fracture the later al exposure of the femur is indicated but in cases of supracendyloid fracture the distal medial exposure is recommended.
