Apoptosis of ligamentous cells of the cranial cruciate ligament from stable stifle joints of dogs with partial cranial cruciate ligament rupture

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Veterinary Research, 2008
Abstract Objective—To describe the presence and amount of apoptotic ligamentous cells in different areas of partially ruptured canine cranial cruciate ligaments (prCCLs) and to compare these findings with apoptosis of ligamentous cells in totally ruptured cranial cruciate ligaments (trCCLs).

Collagenolytic Protease Expression in Cranial Cruciate Ligament and Stifle Synovial Fluid in Dogs with Cranial Cruciate Ligament Rupture

Veterinary Surgery, 2005
Objective—To determine expression of collagenolytic genes and collagen degradation in stifle tissues of dogs with ruptured cranial cruciate ligament (CCL).Animals—Six dogs with CCL rupture and 11 dogs with intact CCL.Procedures—Gene expression in CCL tissue and synovial fluid cells was studied using reverse transcriptase‐polymerase chain reaction (RT ...

Epidemiology of cranial cruciate ligament rupture in dogs

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1993
Summary Data from 10,769 dogs with rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament (ccl) were compared with data from a control population of 591,548 dogs to determine whether age, breed, gender, or body weight was associated with prevalence of ccl rupture. Prevalence of ccl rupture increased as dogs became older, with peak prevalence in dogs 7 to 10 years ...

Repair of cranial cruciate ligament rupture in an alpaca

Australian Veterinary Journal, 1999
A mature male alpaca with acute lameness of the left hindlimb was diagnosed as having a rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament. Repair was achieved using a combination of surgical techniques. A patellar ligament autograft was passed under the cranial meniscal ligament, through the joint and over the femoral condyle, and anchored using a screw and ...

Vascular Distribution in Ruptured Canine Cranial Cruciate Ligament

Veterinary Surgery, 2011
Objective:To (1) determine the microanatomic vascular distribution in ruptured canine cranial cruciate ligaments (CCL) using specific vascular immunohistochemical techniques, and (2) compare vessel density between ruptured and intact canine CCL and between different areas of interest in ruptured CCL using histomorphometric analysis.Study Design:In ...

Intracapsular Repairs For Cranial Cruciate Ligament Ruptures

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1993
Two intracapsular techniques and their modifications are described that can be regarded as the most accepted procedures in general use today. The difficulty in rationalizing a choice between intra- and extracapsular techniques is discussed with some principles being suggested to help the surgeon choose a technique.

Evaluation of ligament fibroblast viability in ruptured cranial cruciate ligament of dogs

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 2003
Abstract Objective—To determine fibroblast viability, assess development of apoptosis, and evaluate tissue hypoxia via histochemical, in-situ hybridization, or immunohistochemical staining in ruptured and intact cranial cruciate ligaments (CCLs) of dogs.

Cranial cruciate ligament rupture in large and giant dogs

open access: yesVeterinary and Comparative Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2007
SummaryForty-two dogs weighing between 30 and 87 kg (mean body weight of 49 kg) with cranial cruciate ligament ruptures (CCLR) were treated with a modified lateral extra-capsular stabilization using braided polyester prosthetic ligament-suture anchor ...
