Evaluation of 3D-printed patient-specific guides to facilitate fluoroscopic-assisted Kirschner wire stabilization of simulated capital physeal fractures in 3D-printed dog femur models

3DP patient-specific guides resulted in faster, simpler, and more accurate Kirschner wire placement.

Comparing the Accuracy of Patient-Specific Guide and Universal Guide for Distal Femoral Osteotomy in Dogs

Both the patient-specific and universal guides can produce accurate results in DFO surgery.

Total hip arthroplasty for femoral fractures other than capital physeal fractures in dogs: 14 cases (2012-2020)

Clinical outcomes were considered good to excellent in all dogs in the study.

Three-dimensionally printed osteotomy and reaming guides for correction of a multiplanar femoral deformity stabilized with an interlocking nail in a dog

Custom osteotomy and reaming guides facilitated complex femoral corrective osteotomies.

Stabilisation of femoral capital physeal fractures using transcervical pinning in cats: 19 cases (2014-2022)

In our study, transcervical pinning was found to be a reliable fixation method in cats with minimal preoperative femoral neck osteolysis.

Comparison of three radiographic assessment methods for detecting slipped capital femoral epiphyses in cats: Klein’s line, modified Klein’s line and the S-sign

The S-sign successfully detected SCFE in cats.

Use of a Modified Intramedullary Pinning Technique for Distal Femoral Physeal Salter–Harris Type I and II Fracture Management: A Retrospective Study of 31 Cats

This technique was associated with an full functional outcome.

Comparison of three radiographic assessment methods for detecting slipped capital femoral epiphyses in cats: Klein’s line, modified Klein’s line and the S-sign

The S-sign can be used to increase early diagnosis and treatment in cats with SCFE.

Trochlear Ridge Prostheses for Reshaping Femoral Trochlear Ridges in Dogs with Patellar Luxation

TRP could represent a potentially reliable alternative to trochleoplasty.

Biomechanical comparison of canine femurs implanted with either cemented (CFX®) or cementless (with lateral bolt) (BFX®+lb) total hip replacement under 4-point bending or torsional loads

BFX + lb stems may be a suitable replacement for CFX stems.
