Postoperative stifle stability had an impact on successful treatment.

Target Trial Emulation: Does surgical versus non-surgical management of cranial cruciate ligament rupture in dogs cause different outcomes?

Surgical management causes a reduction in short- and long-term lameness compared with non-surgical management in dogs.

Short-term outcomes of cranial cruciate ligament rupture treated surgically with tibial plateau leveling osteotomy or non-surgically in small-breed dogs weighing less than 10 kg

Cautious consideration should be given to a conservative treatment in small-breed dogs.
