“…Different studies have evaluated where the tibial hole should be placed to be the most isometric. Different locations have been described, but all were localized in the same area, between the insertion of the patellar ligament on the tibial crest and the cranial extremity of the tibial plateau 16–18 . As no other description exists for ferrets, we elected to drill the hole in this area.…”

“…Different locations have been described, but all were localized in the same area, between the insertion of the patellar ligament on the tibial crest and the cranial extremity of the tibial plateau. [16][17][18] As no other description exists for ferrets, we elected to drill the hole in this area. Nevertheless, because of the very small size of the tibia, particular attention should be given when drilling hole because any mistake could lead to a malposition of the hole and a persistent instability of the stifle.…”

A 1‐year‐old, male, neutered ferret was presented with a history of 2 weeks of left hindlimb lameness. Orthopaedic exam and radiographs were consistent with a complete cranial cruciate ligament rupture. An extracapsular stabilization was performed. Progressive lameness improvement was observed during the first 15 days after surgery and a complete resolution was achieved 3 weeks after surgery. Twenty‐one months after surgery, no lameness or recurrence was reported and moderate osteoarthritis developed at radiographic follow‐up. This is the first case of surgical management of cranial cruciate ligament in a ferret with long‐term follow‐up. Even if this disease is rarely reported in this species, cranial cruciate ligament should be included in differential diagnosis of ferret's hindlimb lameness. Surgical management is feasible and could be considered as an alternative to conservative management.
