Transarticular elastic external skeletal fixator correction of a stifle rotational deformity and patellar luxation in a dog

Surgical treatment resulted in resolution of the PL and neutral stifle alignment.

Corrective osteotomy and partial tarsal arthrodesis in two greyhounds with calcaneal malunion

Overall, owner satisfaction and outcome were considered good-to-excellent in both dogs.

Prevalence and Risk Factors for Bilateral Meniscal Tears Identified during Treatment for Cranial Cruciate Ligament Disease Via TPLO in Dogs

Surgeons can use these results to determine prognoses and propensities for meniscal tears in at-risk dogs.

A humeral intracondylar repair system for the management of humeral intracondylar fissure and humeral condylar fracture

This repair system was associated with low complication rates.

Human placenta-derived matrix with cancellous autograft and demineralized bone matrix for large segmental long-bone defects in two dogs with septic nonunion

Augmenting fixation with grafts and hPM led to a relatively rapid union in both dogs reported here.

Isolated Articular Fractures of the Canine Talus: Diagnosis and Signalment in Fourteen Dogs

Isolated articular fracture of the talus is rare and may prove a diagnostic challenge.

Outcome following surgical stabilization of distal diaphyseal and supracondylar femoral fractures in dogs

Various fixation techniques resulted in favorable outcomes in most dogs.

Virtual mechanical tests out-perform morphometric measures for assessment of mechanical stability of fracture healing in vivo

Virtual mechanical testing can be used to reliably and noninvasively assess the rigidity of a healing fracture.

Biomechanical comparison of ex vivo lumbar vertebral fracture luxations stabilized with tension band or polymethylmethacrylate in cats

Tension band stabilization provided stability comparable to SP in flexion.

Outcomes of dogs with progressive myelomalacia treated with hemilaminectomy or with extensive hemilaminectomy and durotomy

This study provides evidence that supports treatment with EHLD in dogs with PMM.
