The role of muscle forces on rotational and cranio-caudal stability in the intact and CCL-deficient stifle: An ex vivo biomechanical study

Periarticular muscle activation mitigates axial plane rotational laxity but does not prevent CCT.

Clinical outcomes and complications after proximal tibial detorsional osteotomy for patellar luxation in dogs: A multicenter retrospective study

PTDO effectively corrected abnormal tibial torsion.

Stifle osteoarthritis reduces goniometric but not active range of motion in dogs with cranial cruciate ligament disease

In C-Dogs and CCL-Dogs, aROM and gROM are not associated.

Modified cranial closing wedge ostectomy in 169 stifles: considerations on potential factors associated with construct failures

The lack of significance in any variable is likely a type II error.

A multiligament, internal brace, coaptationless stifle reconstruction technique for feline stifle luxation

This coaptationless technique allows for effective restoration of stifle stability in feline patients.

Quantitative Computed Tomographic Assessment of Feline Stifles Following Block Recession Trochleoplasty and Tibial Tuberosity Transposition for Medial Patellar Luxation

No cats had MPL recurrence at the 6-week follow-up.

Radiographic assessment of popliteal sesamoid position and cranial tibial subluxation in canine stifle joints undergoing TPLO: A retrospective study of 163 dogs

Popliteal sesamoid reduction was associated postoperatively with minimal CTS and appropriate TPA.

Accuracy and safety of stifle arthrocentesis and injection based on two established and two new landmarks: Ex vivo study in dogs

INFRA required increased repositions and had high IACI rates on weightbearing cartilage.

Novel prosthetic medial meniscus restores contact pressures to native values in a meniscectomized canine stifle

A prosthetic meniscus has the potential to restore biomechanical function in the canine stifle.

Validation of goniometric measurements of rotational laxity of the canine stifle

Goniometric assessment of stifle rotation should be considered during routine orthopedic examination.
