Avascular necrosis of the femoral head was diagnosed in a 5-month-old Schipperke, before the development of femoral head and neck collapse and resultant degenerative joint disease. External coaptation, consisting of an Ehmer sling, was used to prevent the bearing of weight during revascularization and reossification of the subchondral bone. Results of pelvic radiography (at 10 and 24 weeks) indicated that the early use of conservative treatment was successful in promoting resolution of the aseptic necrosis and in maintaining normal coxofemoral anatomic features and function.
