Resumo: | An approximately 5-month-old, male puma (Puma concolor) was rescued after being hit by a vehicle on a highway. Radiographic examination revealed caudal endplate fracture of L6 and fissure of the vertebral arch with articular facet involvement. Conservative treatment was considered the most appropriate option due to the clinical signs, location and fracture type. The animal was confined in an enclosure that allowed limited mobility. On the 35th day after admission, a new radiographic exam showed signs similar to osteomyelitis. A 30-day treatment with amoxicillin-clavulanate was successful in resolving the suspected infection. At the same time, environmental enrichment was carried out by feeding living prey, which allowed the puma to be released into its natural habitat on the 79th day after admission. |
