Osteotomy/Ostectomy

Treatment of cranial cruciate ligament insufficiency and medial patellar luxation in a small-breed dog with a true spherical osteotomy

At the 8-week postoperative follow-up examination, the dog had normal weight-bearing ability.

Retrospective comparison of outcomes following TPLO and lateral fabello-tibial suture stabilisation of CCL disease in small dogs with high tibial plateau angles

The risk of complication increased with the weight of the dog at surgery.

Combined center of rotation of angulation-based leveling osteotomy and tibial tuberosity transposition: An ex vivo mechanical study

No difference in mean load to failure was identified between CBLO-TTT and CBLO alone.

Evaluation of a crescent saw guide for tibial plateau-leveling osteotomy: An ex vivo study

The crescent guide may improve control of the radial saw during TPLO.

Center of rotation of angulation-based leveling osteotomy for stifle stabilization in skeletally immature dogs

CBLO is an option for skeletally immature dogs with CrCL injury.

Incidence of and risk factors for surgical site infection following canine limb amputation

Use of bipolar vessel sealing devices for muscle transection increased the odds of developing an SSI.

Hemiepiphysiodesis for the Correction of Distal Femoral Valgus in Growing Dogs

Hemiepiphysiodesis should be considered as an early treatment in affected immature dogs.

Locking compression plates versus locking plates for TPLO in dogs: progression of osteoarthritis, bone healing score and lameness degree

The locking compression system allowed a more rapid functional recovery of the limb.

Evaluation of Meniscal Load and Load Distribution in the Canine Stifle after TPLO with Postoperative Tibia Plateau Angles of 6 and 1 Degrees

The contact force on both menisci is reduced significantly after TPLO with a TPA of 1 degree.

Computed tomographic assessment of the completeness of arthroscopic subtotal coronoidectomy in dogs with medial coronoid disease

Incomplete removal was more likely to occur in the presence of radial incisure lesions.
