Hip

The study shows that FHNO could lead to severe functional deficits in large breed dogs. An extensive follow-study is necessary to more accurately determine the frequency of such complications.

In this study of canine hip dysplasia, little or no benefit was gained from using a joint training set as compared to using a single population as training set.

Persistent enlargement of the lumbosacral lateral intervertebral neurovascular foramen in the medium term

A successful, repeatable and safe technique, in the study

Decreased force may facilitate acetabular rotation during DPO procedure

The Vezzoni modified Badertscher distension device technique allows for a reliable in-house evaluation of canine hip joint laxity

The SILIS instrument addresses limitations associated with MIO, including maintenance of reduction throughout surgery along with reliable and accurate sacral screw placement

Locking T-plates may prevent complications reported following the use of conventional implant systems

Estimates of heritability ranged from 0.15 to 0.41, according to breed and country

Optimum craniocaudal angle of 101° recommended in the feline sacral body. Preoperative CT measuring recommended for ideal individual angle in the transverse plane.
