Comparison of axial tibial-metatarsal alignment in dogs of varying size with and without medial patellar luxation [PDF]
ObjectivesTo compare tibial torsion angle (TTA) and proximal tibial metatarsal angle (PTMTA) between dogs weighing < 10 kg and dogs weighing ≥ 10 kg with and without medial patellar luxation (MPL) to assess whether transverse plane tibial-metatarsal ...

Patellar luxation causes abnormal mechanical loading and joint destruction in the femoral-tibial joint [PDF]
Aims: Patellar luxation can cause abnormal mechanical loading and is a leading cause of patellofemoral joint damage, however its contribution to femoral-tibial joint damage is poorly elucidated.

Prevalence and Grade of Patellar Luxation in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels Attending Primary-Care Veterinary Practices in Australia. [PDF]
Patella luxation was prevalent in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels attending Australian veterinary practices. Dogs which were younger, neutered, above the breed standard weight, and with ruby‐coloured coats were at increased risk, while dogs with bilateral luxation were more likely to be diagnosed with higher grade luxation .

Lesions in canine stifle joints due to trochleoplasties as treatment for medial patellar luxation. [PDF]
Lesions in canine stifle joints after previous trochleoplasty surgery were documented. Infour clinical cases arthrotomies were performed due to stifle pain after previous trochleardeepening procedures. A small area of hyaline cartilage remained in the groove of the stiflesin cases where previous wedge trochleoplasties had been performed.
