Cranial Cruciate Ligament Rupture

ABSTRACT Proximal tibial deformities or patellar luxation may occur concurrently with cranial cruciate ligament rupture. The objective of this study was to describe the management of those conditions with a modified triple tibial osteotomy (TTO) in nine dogs. Medical records of dogs who underwent a modified TTO were reviewed. The mean pre- and postoperative patellar tendon angles were 104.2° and 92.9°, respectively. The mean pre- and postoperative mechanical medial proximal tibial angles were 99.5° and 91.5°, respectively. Medial patellar luxation was present in five dogs (55.6%) and treated in all five dogs with a tibial crest transposition. Tibial torsion was grossly resolved in two dogs (22.2%). Perioperative distal tibial crest fracture was treated by pins and a figure-of-eight tension-band wire in five dogs (55.6%). One major (surgical site infection) and three minor postoperative complications were observed. At the last follow-up, seven dogs (77.8%) had no lameness, one dog (11.1%) had mild lameness, and one dog (11.1%) had moderate lameness. Radiographic evaluation showed good (2/9; 22.2%) to excellent (7/9; 77.8%) bone healing. The visual analog scale evaluation revealed good-to-excellent owner satisfaction. Cranial cruciate ligament rupture, tibial deformities, and medial patellar luxation are difficult to treat together. A modified TTO may be used to treat these conditions.

Cranial Cruciate Ligament Rupture

SummaryThe effect of two suture types, monofilament polybutester and braided polyester, on stifle joint biomechanics after extra-articular repair of cranial cruciate ligament rupture was evaluated by analysis of the instant centre of motion. The instant centres of motion and resulting velocity vectors were determined radiographically on both stifles of eight fresh canine cadavers before and after cranial cruciate ligament transection. After ligament transection, all 16 stifles were repaired with an extra-articular technique utilizing a double strand of suture placed between the lateral fabella and the tibial tuberosity. One stifle on each cadaver was repaired with each suture type. The instant centres of motion and resulting velocity vectors were re-evaluated post repair. All stifles had normal instant centres of motion prior to transection of the cranial cruciate ligament. Neither ligament transection nor extra-articular repair with either suture type resulted in an abnormal change in the instant centre of motion.

Cranial Cruciate Ligament Rupture

The aim of this study was to evaluate if the modified Insall Salvati (IS) method can be applied for the canine patient despite differences of proximal tibial morphology, and if such potential differences are also seen in dogs with cranial cruciate ligament rupture. Insall Salvati method is a simple and convenient method for determination of the vertical position of patella, by dividing the length of patella by length of the patellar ligament. The influence of the variable proximal tibial morphology on the modified (IS) index was measured and the value of modified IS index in healthy dogs (n = 25) was compared with dogs with cranial cruciate ligament rupture (n = 26). Medio-lateral radiographs of 102 stifles were evaluated. Patellar ligament length (PLL), patellar length (PL), modified IS ratio and the height of insertion point of patellar ligament on tibial tuberosity were measured. Data of the IS ratio were compared with the value of the height of the insertion point with no significant difference (P = 0.36). There was no significant difference (P = 0.07) in the PLL:PL ratio between dogs affected or unaffected with cranial cruciate ligament rupture. Based on the results of this study we can conclude that the morphology of the cranio-proximal tibia and the height of insertion point of the patellar ligament do not have an influence on the value of the modified IS index both in healthy dogs and in dogs with cranial cruciate ligament rupture.
