There were differences between the two centers in which order was most affected. At CEMPAS, Strigiformes accounted for 48.1% of the cases, but at LWE Accipitriformes were most affected (59.4% of cases). The axial skeleton was least affected at both centers, with two cases at CEMPAS and three cases at LWE. Most fractures included a single bone in the appendicular skeleton, accounting for 57.7% at CEMPAS and 61.9% at LWE. In the thoracic limb, the humerus was the most fractured bone at CEMPAS (44\/108), whereas the ulna was most commonly fractured at LWE (116\/307). In the pelvic limb, the tibiotarsus was the most fractured bone at both centers (23\/35 at CEMPAS and 27\/80 at LWE). Closed fractures were more frequent in the thoracic and pelvic limbs at both centers. Cases of luxation or subluxation without fractures were less common, with 6.7% at CEMPAS and 7.2% at LWE. The types of fractures and\/or luxations identified in this study exhibited several similarities between centers that may be useful in understanding these lesions in raptors and establishing future treatment protocols.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7589\/jwd-d-24-00211","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,16]],"date-time":"2026-02-16T09:38:27Z","timestamp":1771234707000},"page":"168-178","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Radiographic Study of Fractures and Luxations in Raptors Admitted at Two Wildlife Centers, Located in Brazil and the USA"],"prefix":"10.7589","volume":"62","author":[{"given":"Helo\u00edsa Coppini de","family":"Lima","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Surgery and Animal Reproduction, School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, S\u00e3o Paulo State University (UNESP), Av.
