A 4-month-old female Saanen-cross kid goat was presented to the University Veterinary Hospital (UVH), Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM), for a traumatic injury of the right hind limb. Radiographic examination revealed open comminuted fracture of the mid shaft of 3rd and 4th metatarsal bones and Salter-Harris fracture type IV at the distal end of tibial bone. A mid femoral amputation was considered as an alternative to euthanasia. This report describes the surgical procedure and medical management following surgical intervention.
