TIBIA TUBEROSITY ADVANCEMENT METHOD IN THERAPY OF ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT RUPTURE IN DOGS
Abstract
Rupture of anterior cruciate ligament is a frequent pathology in large and giant dog breeds. Objective: To study a method of tuberosity advancement (TTA) on the tibia in treatment of the anterior cruciate ligament rupture in dogs. The study comprises results of the tibia tuberosity advancement in surgical treatment of anterior cruciate ligament rupture in 55 dogs of different breeds. The dogs were 3.5 to 6.5 years old. Body weight of the animals varied 49.9 ± 6.5 kg. Therapy results are represented in terms of the joint stability and instability analysis, local temperature and edema, occurrence of para-articular structures, and painful movement; complication were found in 10% cases. At the same time, no implant rejection was observed during post-surgery period. Conclusion. Strict adherence to the method of tuberosity advancement on the tibia in therapy of anterior cruciate ligament which involves elimination of crescentic cartilage ruptures, and introduction of a spacer into the diastasis between the tuberosity and tibia fixed with a retainer plate, was found beneficial. This method is widely available, effective, and may be recommended for therapy of anterior cruciate ligament in large or giant dog breeds.
