Comparison of Hindlimb Conformation in Cats with and without Medial Patellar Luxation

Veterinary and Comparative Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2022
Abstract Objectives Medial patellar luxation (MPL) is the most common developmental cause of hindlimb lameness in cats. The association between femoral and tibial conformation and MPL measured on computed tomography (CT) has not been reported in cats.

Surgical correction of congenital medial patellar luxation in a llama

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1989
Unilateral congenital medial patellar luxation in a young llama was corrected by medial joint capsule release, tibial crest transposition, trochleoplasty, and lateral joint capsule imbrication. The techniques used were the same as described in the dog. One year after surgery, the llama was not lame, but had a valgus deformity originating at the stifle,

Cartilage Changes in Dogs with Surgically Treated Medial Patellar Luxations

Veterinary and Comparative Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 1999
SummaryThe purpose of this study is to examine the stifle joint articular cartilage changes in dogs with clinically significant patellar luxation and determine if this cartilage is significantly different from that of dogs without patellar luxation. Osteochondral slices were obtained from dogs during recession sulcoplasty.

INTRA-ARTICULAR CHARACTERISTICS OF DOGS WITH MEDIAL PATELLAR LUXATION

2023
The study investigated the relationship of degree of patellar luxation of dogs with joint radiography, intra-articular degenerative change of the stifle with medial patellar luxation (MPL), histopathologic change, and biomarker index. Thirty-eight stifles were divided into four groups: normal stifle joints (4), grades 2 (13), 3 (12), and 4 (9) MPL ...

Trochlear wedge recession for medial patellar luxation. An update.

The Veterinary clinics of North America. Small animal practice, 1993
Trochlear wedge recession, a surgical technique for correction of luxating patella, has been improved and simplified over the years. Modifications in the technique for the pathologic sulcus are described. Common problems with the osteotomy placement and wedge stability are defined with recommendations for correction.

Evaluation of the association between medial patellar luxation and hip dysplasia in cats

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1999
Objective To investigate the association between hip dysplasia (HD) and medial patellar luxation (MPL) in cats. Design Cross-sectional prevalence study. Animals 78 cats. Procedure A complete history was obtained. Cats were examined to detect MPL and HD. Radiographs of the stifle and hip joints were obtained.
