The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cause of lens luxation and to determine the frequency of vision loss, glaucoma, cataract, and corneal edema before and after intracapsular lens extraction (ICLE). The medical records of 8 dogs underwent ICLE for the correction of anterior lens luxation at the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Seoul National University from August 2005 to September 2007 were reviewed. The most frequently affected breed was Miniature Poodle (n = 3). The mean age was $10.8{\pm}2.1$ years. Preoperatively, 5 eyes (67.5%) with anterior luxation had secondary glaucoma, 7 eyes (87.5%) had vision loss, and all eyes (100.0%) had corneal edema. Four weeks after ICLE, 6 eyes (75.0%) had normal intraocular pressure (IOP), and 4 eyes (50.0%) regained vision. Corneal edema was reduced after ICLE in all eyes, but still remained in 4 eyes. It was considered that ICLE was beneficial in the management of anterior lens luxation, but the eyes without glaucoma before ICLE had more favorable prognosis than eyes with.

It is rare that the complete avulsion, intrusive luxation, and extrusive luxation occurred by trauma at the same time. In July, 2003, 10-year and 2 month-old-girl was referred to Department of Pediatric dentistry, Chonnam National University Hospital due to complete avulsion of upper right lateral incisor, intrusive luxation of upper right cental incisor and extrusive luxation of upper left central incisor. Traumatized teeth were surgically repositioned and fixated with resin-wire splint at the same day. Endodontic treatment of avulsed tooth was performed 2 weeks after trauma. A radiograph was taken 3 months after trauma, which demonstrated root resorption of both upper central incisors. External root resorption was arrested by the root canal therapy with calcium hydroxide. It showed good results for 1 year and 4 month but further follow-up is needed to check root resorption and ankylosis.

This study investigated the prognosis of luxation injuries in primary teeth treated with splinting. This study retrospectively analyzed 92 children with luxation injuries to their primary teeth who were treated with splints between 2010 and 2015. Prognoses were analyzed in patients who had been followed for more than 6 months. The prognoses with splinting were based on clinical and radiographic evaluations performed during the follow-up examinations. The mean patient age was 42.1 months, and 67.4% were male. The most common cause of luxation injury was falling, and the mean splint duration was 2.4 weeks. The success rate of splinting was 58.9%. The highest rate of success was achieved following subluxation, while repositioning and splinting of lateral luxation had the lowest rate of success. Pulp necrosis was the most common unfavorable prognosis in the luxation injuries. Depending upon the type of luxation, splint therapy had acceptable prognoses and might be a feasible treatment option.

치아 외상은 크게 fracture와 luxation injury로 분류된다. 이 중에서 영구치의 root fracture는 외상의 0.5~0.7%를 차지하는 것으로 조사되고 있다. 호발부위로는 상악 중절치가, 나이로는 11~20세에서 호발하여, 이보다 어린 나이에서는 alveolar socket의 elasticity 때문에 fracture보다는 luxation 쪽으로 많이 발생하는 것으로 보고되고 있다.(중략)

A sexually intact female Alaskan Malamute, 5-year-old weighing 25.2 kg presented to the Hangang Animal Hospital, following hit-by-car. On initial presentation, the dog had severe salivation and the right canine tooth luxation. Radiographs revealed fractures of the right rostral hemimandible with the right canine tooth luxation and symphyseal separation. Surgical repair of fractures was performed by use of an interdental wiring technique and external fixation technique that included pins, an acrylic connecting bar, and polymethyl methacrylate bone cement. Post-operative radiographs revealed that bridging callus was well formed over cortices of the fracture area. Pins and an acrylic connecting bar were removed 7 weeks post-operatively. The dog exhibited evidence of normal mastication.

A 30 kg, 6-year-old spayed female Samoyed dog was referred with a history of intermittent weight-bearing lameness in her right hindlimb for 3 weeks. The patient hadsurgery to correct a medial patellar luxation in the same limb 3 years prior. Based on the physical examination and radiographic findings, MPL and CCLR of the right hindlimb were diagnosed. Pre-surgical arthroscopy examination was performed, revealing a complete rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament, medial caudal meniscal tears and fibrotic cartilagechanges on the trochlear groove. An arthroscopy-assisted partial meniscectomy was used to repair themedial caudal meniscus. To correct the tibial plateau angle and medial patellar luxation, a tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) was performed. A tibial tuberosity transposition (TTT) was performed to realignthe quadriceps mechanism with the trochlear block recession followed by soft tissue reconstruction. The post-surgical recovery was uneventful, and the patient was weight-bearing with normal ambulation on the repaired limb. There were no complications, and the implants were well positioned at the last follow-up. The clinical outcome of the caseindicates that combining TPLO with TTTis a good surgical option for treatingconcurrent CCLR and MPL.

A 10-year-old intact female Chihuahua weighing 2 kg was presented for complaint of forelimb lameness with non-weight bearing posture. Greater tubercle was palpated medial to its normal location on palpation and crepitation was intermittent with manipulation. On radiographic examination, left medial scapulohumeral joint luxation was found. Bilateral medial patellar luxations also were found and evaluated as grade III. Surgically, the medial scapulohumeral joint luxation was reduced with transposition of the tendon of the biceps brachii muscle. The patient's gait became normal and non-weight bearing posture was resolved at 6 weeks postoperatively.

A nine-month-old male Jindo with non weight-bearing on the right forelimb in flexed position, pain and edema of the elbow, and resist elbow extension was brought to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Chungbuk National University. Elbow radiographs showed loss of humeroradial joint space and lateral displacement of the radius and ulna. Closed reduction was reported the best therapy in most cases of luxation of the elbow but conservative reduction was impossible. Open reduction of the luxated elbow was performed and ruptured collateral ligaments were identified. Displaced elbow was required bloody surgical operation and gentle reduction to restore elbow joint. Internal reduction of choice for elbow luxation with rupture of collateral ligament in the dog was a double locking-loop suture pattern. To ensure secure grasping of parallel bundles of ligament fibers to transverse bites of each suture were placed superficial to the longitudinal bites. All ligaments were repaired with 3-metric (size 2 USP) monofilament polypropylene suture. No complications have been noted during a five-month follow up.

This paper outlines the case of a 56 year-old man undertaking treatment by means of luxation and forced eruption of an ankylosed canine. At the time of diagnosis, the ankylosis of the tooth was not suspected, because there were not signs of intrusive luxation nor horizontal diaplacement. Only after the application of a vertical elastic force failed to erupt the maxillary left canine, was the ankylosis of that tooth suspected. At the time of reevaluation, the maxillary left canine hads no physiologic tooth mobility and emitted a sharp, ringing sound upon percussion. Hence, the maxillary left canine was considered ankylosed. The treatment course then changed to the extrusion of the canine through the surgical luxation of the tooth and the prompt application of vertical extrusive forces. The above outcome was successful for the patient not only in the orthodontic aspect, but also in terms of the periodontal considerations
