Use of a tibial osseointegrated prosthesis as a limb salvage method in two dogs

This osseointegrated implant system allowed dogs to regain normal clinical function of their pelvic limb for 3 years.

Repeatability and reproducibility of a tomographic method for measuring tibial torsion in dogs with medial patellar luxation

The new tomographic method was repeatable and reproducible for the measurement of tibial torsion in dogs with MPL.

Comments on the “Effect of Tibial Tuberosity Advancement on Femorotibial Shear in Cranial Cruciate-Deficient Stifles. An In Vitro Study”

No justification is provided as to why re-directing the patellar tendon causes a natural automatic re-direction of the F FT force.

Short-term complications of internal versus external fixation of closed diaphyseal tibial fractures in 95 skeletally immature dogs

Surgeons should consider the use of IF over ESF for skeletally immature dogs to reduce the risk of major complications.

Minimally Invasive Radial–Ulnar and Tibial Fracture Management with Supracutaneous Locking Plates in Dogs and Cats

Cats and dogs tolerated SLPs well.

Comprehensive radiographic grading system and clinical outcomes of canine tibial avulsion fractures in dogs

This study introduces an enhanced classification system for tibial apophyseal fractures in dogs.

Effect of screw placement order on range of proximal tibial fragment rotation adjustment and osteotomy gap formation when using manual reduction during tibial plateau levelling osteotomy (TPLO)

The proximal screw position should be placed first in the head of the plate.

Outcome and Complications Following Medial Patellar Luxation Corrective Surgery with Tibial Tuberosity Transposition Using a Locking Plate and a Pin Fixation: 45 Unilateral and 20 Single-Session Bilateral Procedures

Plate-Pin fixation for TT during MPL surgery is a feasible technique with a lower incidence of luxation recurrence

Effect of screw placement order on range of proximal tibial fragment rotation adjustment and osteotomy gap formation when using manual reduction during tibial plateau levelling osteotomy (TPLO)

The proximal screw position minimises cranial osteotomy gap formation.

Interfragmentary Compression of Tibial Osteotomies

The tibial plateau levelling osteotomy (TPLO) procedure was both revolutionary and controversial.
