Occurrence of canine hip dysplasia, cranial cruciate ligament rupture and patellar luxation in dogs in a retrospective study of 100 orthopedic cases

Abstract

Canine hip dysplasia (CHD), cranial cruciate ligament rupture (CrCLR) and patellar luxation (PL) are the main causes of lameness in orthopedics of dogs. The present study evaluated dogs with these conditions attended at the Veterinary Unit of the Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná (PUCPR), between the years 2014 and 2018. A 100 charts were analyzed, the animals were divided by weight [w1 (0 -20 kg), w2 (20.1 -40 kg), w3 (40.1 -60 kg), w4 (60.1 -80 kg)], age [puppy (0-1year), adult (1.1-7 years), aged (> 7 years)], gender, reproductive status (neutered and non-neutered), PL degrees (I to IV), and affected limb. The correlation of the degree of PL with gender was analyzed by Mann Whitney. The degree of PL with weight and age by Kruskal-Wallis. Other data were correlated with the diseases by the Chi-Square Test. In the w1 category, the prevalence of CrCLR and LP was 73.7% and 87%, respectively, while the majority of CHD (65.3%) was found in the w2 category. Most dogs with

“…Este grau é o mais diagnosticado em cães durante consultas ortopédicas (MACIEL et al, 2019). Porém, no dia da cirurgia, a paciente apresentava uma luxação patelar que evoluiu para o grau IV, sendo possível verificar uma patela hipoplásica e deslocada medialmente, com a patela luxando constantemente no membro direito.…”

“…Estima-se que 75% dos casos relatados de luxação patelar medial são considerados congênitos, e, destes, 20 a 25% acometem os dois membros (SILVEIRA et al, 2021). É uma das principais causas de claudicação dos membros pélvicos quando se refere à ortopedia canina (MACIEL et al, 2019). A luxação patelar medial pode acometer cães de qualquer idade, raça ou sexo, mas é frequentemente mais diagnosticada em raças pequenas e miniaturas (SANTOS et al, 2020).…”
