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...

“…Nevertheless, meniscal probing was a standard for mini-arthrotomy in this study. In a retrospective study by haYeS et al (2010), 36.3% dogs had a medial meniscal tear. During stifle joint arthrotomy, diagnosis of a medial meniscal tear is routinely made by observation and probing.…”

rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) remains the most common canine orthopaedic problem seen in clinical practice. the present paper describes a population of 117 dogs with CCL rupture diagnosed by clinical examination followed by mini-arthrotomy. the dogs were treated from January 2010 to February 2015 at the Clinic for Surgery, Orthopaedics and Ophthalmology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Zagreb, Croatia, by the same surgeon. The age, breed, gender and reproductive profile were analysed in relation to CCL rupture occurrence during the study and were discussed in relationship to previous published reports. Of the 117 dogs, 29.0% were mixed breed dogs and 13.7% Labrador retrievers as the most common. Males and females were equally affected. Bilateral rupture occurred in 5.85% cases, mostly in mixed breed females. Medial meniscal tear was observed in 22.2% of cases with mini-arthrotomy and probing. the average age of the small breed dogs was 8.3 years, and of the large breed dogs 4.2 years. Dogs aged 5 years and older had 2.5 times the likelihood of suffering from CCL rupture compared with dogs aged under 5 years (P<0.01).

“…It is believed that secondary meniscal injury occurs because most of the owner delayed to come to the hospital due to ignorance about this condition and think it will be recovered automatically after some times. RCCL combined with the loss of meniscal function create a complex pathological condition in joints which exacerbates the pain, inflammation, and dysfunction (Hayes et al, 2010).…”

“…Indeed, meniscal pathology at the time of cruciate reconstruction plays a major prognostic factor in the improvement of osteoarthritis within the knee joint (Hayes et al, 2010). There are many surgical procedures have been using for surgical management of the joint instability associated with RCCL such as extracapsular lateral suture technique (LST), tibial tuberosity advancement (TTA), tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) etc (Bergh et al, 2014).…”

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the benefits of the clinical outcome of meniscal injury diagnosis and surgical management during the reconstruction of cranial cruciate ligament rupture (RCCL) in dogs. Materials and methods: For these purpose two groups with 2 different surgery regimens; group 1 (G1), RCCL was corrected with partial meniscectomy and tibial tuberosity advancement (TTA), and another one (group-2, G2) only with TTA. Long-term follow-up about postoperative complications and any recurrence of signs were recorded by referring veterinarians by medical questionnaire over telephone contact and radiographic postoperative follow-up of bone healing was evaluated. Results: Meniscal injuries were diagnosed arthroscopically in five dogs out of six dogs, and corrected by partial meniscectomy arthroscopically. The percentage of presence of meniscal injury was 83%. It was found that clinical outcomes were superior in G1 than G2 group both walking starting time (4.6±2.5 and 6.4±2.9 days, respectively) or full recovery time (39.2±26.9 and 58.1±24.5 days, respectively) was significantly shortage (P<0.05) along with less postoperative complication at two years postoperative observation. Out of the five dogs, lameness, arthritis was developed in four dogs in G2 group while the number of dogs was two in G1 group within two years. Conclusion: Finally based on the clinical superiority, it is recommended that meniscal injury should be checked and corrected during RCCL reconstruction for getting better clinical outcomes.
