Limb sparing achieved by ray amputation for osteosarcoma of the left third metacarpal bone in a labrador
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A seven‐year‐old male neutered labrador weighing 35 kg with a two‐week history of left forelimb lameness was diagnosed with osteosarcoma of the third metacarpal bone. No pulmonary metastases were detected and ray amputation (removal of the left third metacarpal bone and third phalanx en bloc) was performed. Circumferential sutures were placed around metacarpals II and IV to realign the adjacent bones and digits during the healing period. The dog received six cycles of single‐agent carboplatin (300 mg/m 2 ) postoperatively. Restaging nine months postoperatively revealed no evidence of metastasis or recurrence. Two years postoperatively, the dog has no evidence of complications or lameness. Thoracic limb amputation and postoperative adjunctive therapy are considered the gold standard treatment for appendicular osteosarcoma; however, an oncological compartment excision of this bone tumour was performed with similar outcome for the patient while preserving the limb.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
