“…Seroma formation is a known risk at the laminectomy site, which may contribute to secondary problems including spinal cord compression by the seroma or infection of the seroma causing abscessation or myelitis. 14 Surgical complications associated with hemilaminectomies involve haematoma formation, which depending on the size, can also result in compression of the spinal cord. 14,16 The surgical approach described in this case report aimed to reduce the risk of these complications.…”

“…This facilitated multiple-level stabilisation, preventing complications like spinal cord compression through a laminectomy defect by haematoma and seroma formation or by soft tissues associated with facet joints. [14][15][16] We consider it important to document this individual case to contribute to the documentation of similarly managed cases to further evaluate advantages of spinal stabilisation alone without direct decompression.

The study described the clinical and imaging findings, treatment and outcome for a British bulldog with cranial thoracic vertebral canal stenosis and thoracolumbar kyphoscoliosis. Data on clinical presentation, diagnostic imaging, surgical procedure, complications and outcome were evaluated. Multiple thoracic vertebral body and dorsal arch malformations were detected by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, resulting in spinal cord compression due to vertebral canal stenosis at T5–T6 and T9–T10, as well as kyphoscoliosis. Surgical vertebral stabilisation between T2 and T10 was performed by using a novel design of unilateral three‐dimensional printed patient‐specific drill guides, to preserve the dorsal spinous processes. Neurological signs had completely resolved 2 months after surgery. Follow‐up examination and computed tomography scan 15 months postoperatively revealed normal neurological status, implant stability and no progression of kyphoscoliosis. This novel design of unilateral three‐dimensional printed patient‐specific drill guides allowed dorsal thoracic vertebral stabilisation without resection of dorsal spinous processes and multiple‐level stabilisation.

“…Pancarpal canine arthrodesis (PCA) sets immobilization of all three carpal joints—The antebrachiocarpal or radiocarpal, the middle carpal or intercarpal, and the carpometacarpal—To result in bony fusion of their joint surfaces ( Buote et al, 2009 ; Ernst, 2012 ). It is a common and well-established salvage surgical procedure indicated for a variety of carpal disorders including hyperextension injuries, severe fractures, end-stage osteoarthritis, and neurologic deficits ( Parker et al, 1981 ; Gambardella and Griffiths, 1982 ; Lesser, 2003 ), and is considered a standard of care procedure in small animal veterinary medicine with the goal to restore reasonable limb function.…”

“…Therefore, for a more physiological stance, a radiocarpal (RC) joint fusion angle of approximately 15° to 20° is clinically preferred, which requires bending of the PCA plate. This makes the bent plate more prone to fatigue failure ( Lesser, 2003 ). Indeed, failure of these pancarpal arthrodesis plate types has been reported in literature with an incidence of 2%–9% ( DeCamp et al, 1993 ; Bristow et al, 2015 ).…”

Pancarpal canine arthrodesis (PCA) sets immobilization of all three carpal joints via dorsal plating to result in bony fusion. Whereas the first version of the plate uses a round hole (RH) for the radiocarpal (RC) screw region, its modification into an oval hole (OH) in a later version improves versatility in surgical application. The aim of this study was to mechanically investigate the fatigue life of the PCA plate types implementing these two features–PCA-RH and PCA-OH. Ten PCA-RH and 20 PCA-OH stainless steel (316LVM) plates were assigned to three study groups (n = 10). All plates were pre-bent at 20° and fixed to a canine forelimb model with simulated radius, RC bone and third metacarpal bone. The OH plates were fixed with an RC screw inserted either most proximal (OH-P) or most distal (OH-D). All specimens were cyclically tested at 8 Hz under 320 N loading until failure. Fatigue life outcome measures were cycles to failure and failure mode. Cycles to failure were higher for RH plate fixation (695,264 ± 344,023) versus both OH-P (447,900 ± 176,208) and OH-D (391,822 ± 165,116) plate configurations, being significantly different between RH and OH-D, p = 0.03. No significant difference was detected between OH-P and OH-D configurations, p = 0.09. Despite potential surgical advantages, the shorter fatigue life of the PCA-OH plate design may mitigate its benefits compared to the plate design with a round radiocarpal screw hole. Moreover, the failure risk of plates with an oval hole is increased regardless from the screw position in this hole. Based on these findings, the PCA plate with the current oval radiocarpal screw hole configuration cannot be recommended for clinical use.

“…Cases of quadriceps contracture usually have a poor prognosis for full recovery. It is usual that patients keep some alteration on the gait (Griffon & Hamaide, 2016). For pain management, there are a few options to use, according to each patient case, such as manual therapy, cryotherapy, heath therapy, Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS), Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES), pulsed waves, continuous waves, laser therapy and aquatic therapy (Samoy et al, 2016).…”

A bilateral patellar agenesis is an extremely rare congenital condition in which the patient does not develop both patellas and can present secondary alterations as bone, muscle and postural changes. There are some hypotheses that it has a genetic background presenting dominant characteristic. It is not yet standardized a gold treatment for this affection, but according to rare reports, clinical and surgical treatments are possible. This is a case report based on imagining exams of a mix breed male puppy that was born with bilateral patellar agenesis, an affection not yet reported in canine species.
