[Symptoms] Cracked or broken shell. [Common Cause] Caused by some sort of trauma (accident). [Treatment] 
If shell is stable, clean with Nolvasan® or Betadine®, then apply triple antibiotic ointment. If very unstable, apply gauze over the ointment and tape in place. Contact a vet who is able to do shell repairs with fiberglass patches, or bone cement. The most dramatic fractures can be repaired if cleaned well, and the inner tissues are protected from infection.
