Knee

Unilateral ACL deficiency in goats resulted in persistent kinematic alterations.

TPLO reduces cranial tibial subluxation during walking, but persistent instability is common.

This study provides evidence to consider adjunct ESWT after TPLO.

These fundamental principles should be applied broadly to animals enrolled in rehabilitation programs.

The TPA can be successfully measured with up to 30° of internal and external tibial rotation in CrCL-deficient stifles with no osteoarthritic changes.

Complication rates are comparable to traditional repairs for MPL.

Locking fixation of TPLO with a 3.5-mm broad TPLO plate alone should be considered in large dogs because it may reduce complications.

This observational animal cohort study demonstrates a biomechanical rationale for investigating diagnostic and potential treatment options.

Use of 3D-printed osteotomy and reduction guides may improve the accuracy of correction of femoral alignment.

Surgeon, surgical experience, arthrotomy, meniscal damage, meniscal intervention, complications, postoperative TPA and initial TPA have no effect on this measurement of surgical outcome.
