“…Em futuros projetos, pretende-se correlacionar o tempo transcorrido desde a lesão do ligamento cruzado cranial até e ruptura do menisco medial. Estes dados permitirão prognósticos mais acurados, já que nas cirurgias onde preservam-se os meniscos, a evolução da osteoartrose é mais lenta e a biomecânica do joelho é preservada 9 .…”

“…O proprietário pode ouvir ruído com som semelhante a "clic" ou crepitação quando o paciente salta ou anda, e este som pode ser audível durante as manobras de flexão e extensão no exame físico 1 . A ruptura é mais frequente em cães de raças grandes e gigantes; nas pequenas, a lesão é menos comum, possivelmente porque depois da ruptura do ligamento cruzado o membro locomotor é mantido elevado e em flexão, diminuindo as cargas sobre os meniscos 2,7,8,9 . A maioria das rupturas de menisco é medial, envolvendo o corno caudal 1,2,3,6 .…”

ResumoO trabalho descreve as lesões de menisco associadas com ruptura do ligamento cruzado cranial em 82 pacientes de diferentes raças, idades e pesos, com o objetivo de avaliar o tipo de ruptura de menisco associada a lesões do ligamento cruzado cranial. No período pré-operatório, os animais foram submetidos à avaliação clínica e radiológica. Todos os animais apresentaram ruptura total ou parcial do ligamento cruzado cranial; 21 (24,14%) animais não apresentaram nenhuma lesão de menisco, os restantes (75,86%) apresentaram apenas lesão no menisco medial. As lesões encontradas no menisco medial foram as seguintes: 33 joelhos (37,93%) apresentaram eversão do corno caudal (Tipo 1); 15 (17,24%) apresentaram lesão em alça de balde (Tipo 6); 3 (3,45%) lesão de fibrilação (Tipo 4); 3 (3,45%) ruptura longitudinal múltipla (Tipo 3); 3 (3,45%) lesão longitudinal (Tipo 2); 1 (1,15%) lesão tipo 7; e 10 (11,49) apresentaram lesões múltiplas. A meniscectomia parcial do menisco medial foi realizada em 63 (72,41%) joelhos e a meniscectomia total em 3 (13,04%). O procedimento cirúrgico para a resolução da ruptura do ligamento cruzado cranial incluiu: avanço da tuberosidade tibial (TTA) (49 joelhos), osteotomia niveladora do platô tibial (TPLO) (15 joelhos), osteotomia em cunha da tíbia (CWO) (14 joelhos), extracapsular (quatro joelhos) e meniscectomia (cinco joelhos). Todos os casos evoluíram com o retorno à função habitual do membro pélvico acometido na primeira semana do período pós-operatório, e com a ausência de complicações. A alta porcentagem (75,86%) de ruptura do menisco medial encontrada no presente trabalho demonstra a importância da avaliação prévia dos meniscos antes da realização da técnica de estabilização da articulação femorotibiopatelar.

AbstractThe following study describes meniscus ruptures associated to cranial cruciate ruptures, in 34 dogs of different breeds, ages and weights. Before surgery the animals underwent clinical and radiographic examinations. All animals presented either total or partial cranial cruciate ruptures: 21 (24.14%) of the animals didn't present any meniscus lesions, and the rest (75.86%) presented only a medial meniscus lesion. The lesions found in the medial meniscus were the following: 33 stifles (37.93%) presented with eversion of the caudal pole (Type 1), 15 (17.24%) showed a bucked handle lesion (Type 6), 3 (3.45%) presented with fibrillation lesion (Type 4), 3 (3.45%) multiple fibrillation lesion (Type 3), 3 (3.45%) longitudinal lesion (Type 2), 1 (1.15%) lesion type 7 and 10 (11.49%) presented multiple lesion. Surgical procedure for cranial cruciate rupture included: tibial tuberosity advancement (TTA) (49 stifle), tibial plateau leveling osteotomies (TPLO) (15 stifle), closing wedge osteotomy (CWO) (14 stifle), extracapsular (4 stifle) and meniscectomy alone (5 stifle), and all these techniques guaranteed weight baring and return to function in the first week after surgery, with no complications. Through this study we co...

Biceps femoris muscle transposition for treatment of cranial cruciate ligament rupture in small breed dogs

et al. 2012

The purpose of this study was to evaluate a new extracapsular surgical technique for the treatment of cranial cruciate ligament rupture in small breed dogs. Nine small breed dogs (seven females and two males) weighing ≤ 15 kg were treated with biceps femoris muscle transposition (BFT). The duration of the BFT procedure was 20 min. Each patient underwent a standard clinical protocol and a questionnaire for the owners. Follow-up (at 1, 3, and 12 months postoperative) confirmed significant improvement in all patients, especially at 1 month postoperatively (p < 0.01) and again after complete stifle joint assessment at 3 months postoperatively. After 12 months, only two patients showed a slight increase in osteoarthritis. According to our results, BFT is a simple extracapsular surgical technique that can be used for the treatment of cranial cruciate ligament rupture in small breed dogs.

Comparison of Contact Mechanics of Three Meniscal Repair Techniques and Partial Meniscectomy in Cadaveric Dog Stifles

Abstract: Based on this ex-vivo model, meniscal repair will restore normal contact mechanics. Consideration should be given to meniscal repair as treatment for peripheral meniscal tears located in the vascular zone if the meniscal parenchyma is normal.
