Three-dimensional motion of the patella in French bulldogs with and without medial patellar luxation [PDF]
BMC Veterinary Research, 2021 Background French bulldogs exhibit significantly larger femoral external rotation and abduction than other breeds. We were curious as to whether this peculiar leg kinematic affects patellar motion and/or might induce medial patellar subluxation (MPSL) or

Post-operative radiographic measures of pelvic limb alignment in dogs with medial patellar luxation after trochlear wedge recession versus trochlear block recession surgery [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2021 Background and Aim: Anatomical and mechanical femoral angles are quite different among dog breeds. Most published data are about large dog breeds, however, medial luxation of patella is more common in small breeds.

Tibial Torsion Malalignment in Small Dogs with Medial Patellar Luxation. [PDF]
Vet Comp Orthop TraumatolAbstract Objective Medial patellar luxation (MPL) is prevalent in small dogs; however, the causes vary, and few studies have reported tibial deformities. We aimed to conduct a detailed morphological investigation of internal tibial torsion and internal foot rotation and compare the results between MPL grades to better understand the ...
