Objectives: This study aims to report complications and long-term outcomes of combined tibial plateau leveling osteotomy and tibial tuberosity transposition (TPLO-TTT) for treatment of concurrent cranial cruciate ligament rupture and medial patellar luxation (MPL).
Osteotomy/Ostectomy
Objective: (1) To determine whether Oxley's modified cranial closing wedge osteotomy (CCWO) results in a tibial plateau angle (TPA) of 5° in silico, (2) compare in silico to clinical postoperative TPA and (3) determine the impact of ostectomy distalization in silico.
Study design: Cross-sectional retrospective radiographic in silico study.
Category: Osteotomy/Ostectomy - Stifle
Objective: The aim of this study was to describe partial parasagittal patellectomy for the surgical management of patellar luxation, including surgical technique, proposed indications, complications, and outcomes in a cohort of dogs.
Study design: This is a single-center retrospective clinical case series.

Category: Luxation/Subluxation - Osteotomy/Ostectomy
Objective: The aim of this study was to describe the use of a procedure-specific fixation method for tibial tuberosity transposition and report clinical outcome.
Category: Osteotomy/Ostectomy
Objective: To determine morphologic differences between four tibial osteotomy techniques used to correct excessive tibial plateau angle (eTPA).
Study design: Retrospective radiographic analysis.
Sample population: Sixteen dogs (27 tibias) with eTPA.
Category: Osteotomy/Ostectomy - Stifle
Objective: To compare the accuracy of three-dimensional (3D) printed patient-specific guide (PSG) with a freehand (FH) approach for radial osteotomies in ex vivo normal dogs.
Study design: Experimental study.
Animals: Twenty four ex vivo thoracic limb pairs from normal beagle dogs.
Category: Osteotomy/Ostectomy
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the kinetic and kinematic changes in the stifle after a modified tibial tuberosity advancement (TTA) with 9 and 12 mm cranialization of the tibial tuberosity in different standing angles.
Category: Cartilage - Osteotomy/Ostectomy - Tibia
Objective: The main aim of this study was to determine the effective magnitude of proximal tibial segment medialization achievable during tibial plateau levelling and medialization osteotomy (TPLO-M) with Fixin 1.9-2.5 mm pre-contoured T plates with three different offsets.

Synthetic anatomical reconstruction of extensive, oval osteochondrosis dissecans (OCD) defects remains a challenge due to the ‘one shape fits all’ design of commercial round implants. This is further complicated by the inherent inaccuracy of free-hand implant positioning procedures.
