Minimal clinically-important differences for the “Liverpool Osteoarthritis in Dogs” (LOAD) and the “Canine Orthopedic Index” (COI) in dogs with osteoarthritis

These estimates can be used for research and patient monitoring.

Tibial Plateau and Stifle Joint Invasion with a Subcutaneous Mast Cell Tumor

Full hind-limb amputation was elected.

Predicting tibial plateau angles following four different types of cranial closing wedge ostectomy

The use of the generated corrective equations may thus increase CCWO planning precision.

Effect of the surface geometry of uncemented acetabular cups on primary stability in a model of uncemented total hip replacement in dogs

Hemiellipsoidal cups provide the same or better initial stability.

Cranial tibial translation measurements for radiographic diagnosis of cranial cruciate ligament rupture in dogs

DPOI ratio values above 1.18 were consistently indicative of CCL rupture.

Use of Locking Plates Fixed with Cortical Screws for Pelvic Fracture Repair in 20 Cats

SOP plates are easy to contour and to apply along the entire pelvic length.

Poor success rates with double pelvic osteotomy for craniodorsal luxation of total hip prosthesis in 11 dogs

Double pelvic osteotomy may be considered to avoid cup replacement.

Review of minimally invasive surgical procedures for assessment and treatment of medial coronoid process disease

Arthroscopy of the canine elbow joint is a safe means by which to evaluate MCP pathology.

Influence of Femoral Position and Pelvic Projection on Norberg Angle Measurements

Tilted images that are subjectively perceived evaluable are probably acceptable.

Outcomes for 15 cats with bilateral sacroiliac luxation treated with transiliosacral toggle suture repair

Transiliosacral toggle suture stabilization of bilateral SILF was associated with good outcomes in cats.
