체중 43kg의 10개월령 암컷 로토와일러가 약 2개월전부터 점진적으로 진행된 좌측후지의 심한 파행 병력으로내원하였다. 신체검사와 고관절 탈구를 진단하였으며 골반의 외측 및 복배측 방사선 사진 촬영으로 확진할 수 있었다. 전배측 접근 후 골수내정으로 제작한 한 개의 toggle pin 및 두 개의 bone screw를 병용 적용하여 대퇴골두를 고정하였다. 일차교정은 술후 7일의 재탈구로 실패하였으며 동일 방법으로 이차 시술한 후 Ehner sling을 적용하고 운동을 제한하였다. 술후 20일에 환축은 거의 정상보행을 회복하였다.

For the 2 years of farming, at the indoor circulating aquaculture system, four kinds of skeletal deformities were found among 60 Far Eastern catfish, Silurus asotus. Deformities saw jawbone's luxation, abnormality of upper lip and malocclusion. Spinal deformity was most fatal deformities with low weight and small length. Jawbone's luxation had 1 maxilla and 2 mandibles. Abnormality of upper lip had just lip was back over. Malocclusion's left maxilla and right maxilla were not balanced. This experiment was any deformities in this species through the deformity can grasp how it affects.

First case, a one-year-old female Shih Tzu weighing 3 kg with closed transverse fractures of bilateral mandibular body between 2nd and 3rd premolar teeth were treated surgically with bone plates and screws, and cranial luxation of temporomandibular joints were reduced to closed method. Second case, a 8.4 years old male Yorkshire terrier weighing 2.6 kg with closed transverse/oblique fractures of bilateral mandibular body between premolar and molar teeth were treated surgically with bone plates and screws. Radiographic examination revealed that the fractures in two cases fixed well and temporomandibular joint was stabilized. One month after operation, jaw activity was excellent and malocclusion wasn't observed.

A 7-year-old, intact female Jindo dog was presented for assessment of weight-bearing lameness of the right hindlimb. On physical examination, crepitus and pain was noted in the right coxofemoral joint upon extension. Radiographs revealed a craniodorsal luxation of the right coxofemoral joint and degenerative joint disease (DJD) of both coxofemoral joints. Total hip replacement (THR) was performed for the right coxofemoral joint. Intraoperatively, dorsal acetabular rim (DAR) deficiency was noted, which can be related to a high risk for acetabular cup implant dislocation. Deficiency of the dorsal acetabular rim realigned with the acetabular cup using universal locking plate (ULP) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement. After surgery, the patient had an uneventful course and a successful outcome. The ROM and thigh girth were dramatically improved. There were no complications associated with prosthesis implants. Hip luxation with dorsal acetabular rim deficiency in a dog was successfully repaired with THR and dorsal acetabular rim augmentation using ULP and PMMA bone cement. This technique should be considered when conventional THR is precluded by dorsal acetabular rim deficiency.

This retrospective study is designed to compare the clinical results of tibial tuberosity transposition (TTT) and anti-rotation suture (ARS) treatments for medial patellar luxation (MPL). Medical records of 133 dogs were reviewed that had undergone surgical correction of MPL between January 2013 and May 2017. MPL correction was performed on 182 stifles, with TTT and ARS being performed on 101 stifles and 81 stifles. The common dog breeds receiving surgical treatment for MPL were Maltese, Pomeranian, Chihuahua and Poodle. Mean age of dogs with MPL was 32.6 months, and their mean body weight was 4.26 kg. Seventy dogs (52.6%) were male and 63 (47.4%) were female. Of the 182 stifles with MPL, grade II, III and IV were 18.7%, 72.0% and 9.3%. Total complications after TTT and ARS were recorded in 16.8% and 29.6%. Major complications after TTT and ARS were recorded in 5.9% and 12.3%, minor complications after TTT and ARS were recorded in 10.9% and 17.3%. The risk of complication and reluxation rate after TTT were significantly lower than that for ARS (p < 0.05). However, the rate of reluxation among dogs treated by ARS (1.2%) for grade II MPL was significantly lower than that for dogs treated by ARS (8.6%) for grade III MPL (p < 0.05). The TTT group had a shorter recovery period after surgical intervention than that in the ARS group (p < 0.001). In conclusion, TTT had a significantly lower incidence of complication and a shorter recovery period than ARS. However, ARS for grade II MPL appears to be a good surgical option for reducing the rate of reluxation after surgery. These results of this study could be used to provide therapeutic guidelines for surgical MPL correction in small-breed dogs.

A seven-year-old Yorkshire terrier 2.1 kg was admitted with a 2 months history of sever bilateral forelimb lameness and joint instability. Examination and radiographs revealed caudal luxation of bilateral antebrachiocarpal joint. Luxation of bilateral antebrachiocarpal (ABC) joint in a toy breed dog was treated with pancarpal arthrodesis. Modified external skeletal fixator (ESF) (type IIb) with polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) was utilized in this case. Porcine cancellous bone graft (PCBG) was inserted to fill the joint space in carpus. The clinical and radiographic assessments of joint after the surgical procedure proved that PCBG can be used a promising alternative to Autogenous cancellous bone graft (ACBG).

A 1 year 4 months old, male Poodle was presented with a history of non weight bearing lameness and pain of the right forelimb by trauma. Orthopedic examination and radiographs were revealed medial shoulder luxation and scapular fracture. Biceps tendon was translocated to the lesser tubercle and secured to the humerus. Despite of it could be a potential cause of degenerative change of the joint, a favorable result was achieved for more than 3 years follow-up.

A 7-month-old, 5.2 kg spayed female Norwegian Forest cat was referred for chronic, non-weight-bearing lameness in the left pelvic limb that has been present since 3 months old and has not responded to medical conservative therapy. Based on orthopedic and radiographic examination, concomitant cranial cruciate ligament rupture (CCLR) and medial patellar luxation (MPL) of the left hind limb were diagnosed. In this case, cranial tibial wedge osteotomy (CTWO) was adopted to overcome side effect of performing other osteotomy techniques such as impairing the growth plates in the proximal tibia. Additionally, patient-specific surgical guides were applied to improve surgical accuracy. The patient showed an improvement in weight-bearing scores and gait condition during follow-up periods without complications. In our case, CTWO combined with corrective surgery for MPL can be used to treat concomitant CCLR and MPL without damaged on the growth plates and shows good clinical outcomes in an immature cat. Furthermore, the use of a surgical guide facilitates surgical procedures that minimize surgical error and increase surgical precision. This case study suggests that CTWO assisted by patient-specific surgical guides may be a viable surgical option for treating an immature cat with concomitant CCLR and MPL.
