RESUMEN

Objective: The aim of this study was to document perceived frequency of medial shoulder syndrome and instability (MSS/MSI) among dogs, and preferred diagnostic and treatment options related to the condition, among American or European Colleges of Veterinary Surgeons (ACVS/ECVS) diplomates, American College of Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation (ACVSMR) diplomates, and dual diplomates of ACVS/ECVS and ACVSMR (double-Boarded diplomates). Procedure: An invitation to complete an online survey was sent to diplomates via email listservs. Results: The known response rate for the survey was 15.8% (160 of 1014 email addresses). There was a difference (P = 0.006) among groups in number of cases of MSS/MSI seen, with ACVS/ECVS diplomates and double-Boarded diplomates seeing 0 to 5 cases per year (80.7 and 72.7%, respectively) and ACVSMR diplomates (32% of total respondents) seeing 11 to 26+ cases annually. The majority of all respondents (56.4%) felt the likely cause of MSS/MSI to be chronic/repetitive strain. Diagnostically, most respondents (78%) relied on shoulder abduction angles; however, most felt it was a questionable or somewhat accurate diagnostic test. The ACVSMR diplomates (88%) relied on musculoskeletal ultrasound as their preferred diagnostic modality, compared to only 35% of ACVS/ECVS diplomates and 45% of double-Boarded diplomates. Preferred treatment was rehabilitation with surgery for unresponsive cases, as reported by 86.9% of all respondents. Preferred surgical treatment was prosthetic ligament reconstruction (62.7%). Conclusion: Despite the low known response rate of this survey, there were significant differences among specialties regarding frequency of MSS/MSI cases seen per year and preferred diagnostic modalities. However, there were no differences among specialties regarding the suspected underlying causes of MSS/MSI and initial treatment strategies.


Enquête en ligne sur le diagnostic et les recommandations thérapeutiques pour le syndrome et l'instabilité médiale de l'épaule chez le chien. Objectif: Le but de cette étude était de documenter la fréquence perçue du syndrome et de l'instabilité médiale de l'épaule (MSS/MSI) chez les chiens, ainsi que les options de diagnostic et de traitement préférées liées à cette maladie, parmi les spécialistes des collèges américains ou européens de chirurgiens vétérinaires (ACVS/ECVS), les spécialistes de l'American College of Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation (ACVSMR) et les spécialistes doubles ACVS/ECVS et ACVSMR. Procédure: Une invitation à répondre à un sondage en ligne a été envoyée aux spécialistes via des listes de diffusion de courrier électronique. Résultats: Le taux de réponse connu pour l'enquête était de 15,8 % (160 sur 1 014 adresses courriel). Il y avait une différence (P = 0,006) entre les groupes dans le nombre de cas de MSS/MSI vus, les spécialistes de l'ACVS/ECVS et les spécialistes doubles voyant 0 à 5 cas par an (respectivement 80,7 et 72,7 %) et les spécialistes de l'ACVSMR (32 % du total des répondants) voient 11 à 26+ cas par an. La majorité de tous les répondants (56,4 %) ont estimé que la cause probable du MSS/MSI était une tension chronique/répétitive. Sur le plan diagnostique, la plupart des répondants (78 %) se sont appuyés sur les angles d'abduction de l'épaule; cependant, la plupart estimaient qu'il s'agissait d'un test diagnostique douteux ou quelque peu précis. Les spécialistes de l'ACVSMR (88 %) ont eu recours à l'échographie musculosquelettique comme modalité diagnostique privilégiée, contre seulement 35 % des spécialistes de l'ACVS/ECVS et 45 % des spécialistes doubles. Le traitement préféré était la réadaptation chirurgicale pour les cas qui ne répondaient pas, comme l'ont indiqué 86,9 % de tous les répondants. Le traitement chirurgical préféré était la reconstruction ligamentaire prothétique (62,7 %). Conclusion: Malgré le faible taux de réponse à cette enquête, il existe des différences significatives entre les spécialités concernant la fréquence des cas de MSS/MSI observés par an et les modalités de diagnostic préférées. Cependant, il n'y avait aucune différence entre les spécialités concernant les causes sous-jacentes suspectées de MSS/MSI et les stratégies de traitement initiales.(Traduit par Dr Serge Messier).

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To (1) Describe the proximal lateral insertion portal for the placement of an intra-articular distraction lever. (2) Assess for associated damage with the insertion of the lever and (3) evaluate the impact of duration of lever use on articular cartilage damage. STUDY DESIGN: Ex vivo canine cadaveric experimental study. ANIMALS: Paired canine stifles from seven cadavers (14 stifles from dogs weighing >20 kg). METHODS: A separate 0.5 cm proximal lateral portal was established adjacent to the lateral scope portal. A standard Ventura stifle thrust lever (VSTL) was inserted without removing the arthroscope. In Group A, the VSTL was placed in distraction for 5 min while in Group B the VSTL was placed for 10 min. The stifle joints were disarticulated and evaluated for associated damage to the long digital extensor tendon and iatrogenic articular cartilage injury (IACI) via India ink assay. RESULTS: No damage to the long digital extensor tendon was noted in any of the specimens during dissection. Superficial IACI was present in all specimens. There were no differences between groups when assessing for overall IACI. CONCLUSION: A proximal lateral portal and insertion of a standard VSTL can be performed without removing the arthroscope. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The use of a proximal lateral lever portal without repositioning the arthroscope was repeatable without damaging the long digital extensor tendon. A duration of up to 10 min in which the thrust lever was engaged did not result in increased visual cartilage damage.

RESUMEN

Intra-articular injections are a nonsurgical treatment modality that can be used to manage osteoarthritis, naturally occurring or surgically induced acute synovitis, and intra-articular ligamentous or tendon injury. This option may be assistive for patients in which other conservative modalities are ineffective, or in conjunction with other forms of treatment. It may also be used as the primary treatment. Injectates labeled for use in companion animal joints include corticosteroids and viscosupplements. Additional injectates, that are not specifically approved for use in companion animals are but are reported in the literature, include orthobiologics and a radioisotope of Tin-117m.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To report the clinical characteristics, surgical management, and medium-term outcomes of total hip replacement (THR) performed in dogs with previous contralateral pelvic limb amputation. ANIMALS: Thirteen client-owned dogs. STUDY DESIGN: Multi-institutional retrospective clinical study. METHODS: Data recorded from medical records included signalment, indication for amputation and THR, and surgical complications. Implant positioning and complications were assessed on radiographs. Clinical outcomes were evaluated during follow-up examinations by one of the authors and through a mobility- and lifestyle-based questionnaire completed by owners. RESULTS: All 13 dogs had satisfactory clinical results at follow-up a median of 3 months (range, 2-36) after THR. No postoperative luxation was recorded. Four dogs had minor complications that did not require additional treatment. The only major complication was one failure of osseointegration of a cementless acetabular cup, and it was successfully revised. CONCLUSION: Total hip replacement resulted in satisfactory clinical results and acceptable morbidity in this population. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Total hip replacement should be considered in dogs with severe coxofemoral joint disease and contralateral pelvic limb amputation.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To determine the influence of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) on radiographic healing and limb function after uncomplicated, stable osteotomies in dogs. STUDY DESIGN: In vivo, prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-control study. SAMPLE POPULATION: Fifty client-owned dogs. METHODS: Fifty client-owned dogs with naturally occurring unilateral cranial cruciate ligament rupture were enrolled prior to tibial plateau leveling osteotomy. Dogs were assigned to an active (LIPUS) treatment group or a placebo control (SHAM) treatment group via block randomization on the basis of age, weight, and affected limb. Dogs in the LIPUS treatment group underwent LIPUS treatments for 20 minutes daily: 1.5-MHZ ultrasound wave pulsed at 1 kHZ with a 20% duty cycle at an intensity of 30 mW/cm2 for the duration of the study (12 weeks). Radiographic evaluation was performed at 4, 8, 10, and 12 weeks postoperatively to evaluate bone healing. Limb function was assessed with temporal-spatial gait analysis preoperatively and at 4, 8, and 12 weeks postoperatively by using a pressure-sensitive walkway system. RESULTS: Both groups had significant improvement in radiographic score and limb use over time. However, there was no significant difference in radiographic bone healing, or limb use as measured by objective gait analysis detected between the LIPUS treatment group and SHAM treatment group at any point in the study. CONCLUSION: LIPUS treatment did not improve healing in this stable osteotomy model. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This study does not provide evidence to support the clinical application of LIPUS to stimulate the healing of stable, uncomplicated osteotomies to accelerate bone healing.

RESUMEN

We evaluated mid- to long-term outcomes with respect to function and complications in dogs undergoing canine unicompartmental elbow (CUE) arthroplasty for treatment of medial compartment disease of the elbow. This prospective multicenter case series is the first group of clinical cases to receive CUE arthroplasty. Cases (each elbow that underwent CUE performed by a participating surgeon) were enrolled into an electronic database and prospectively followed to determine and record all associated complications, as well as functional outcomes. There were 103 cases from 18 surgeons. Final follow-up time ranged from 6 to 47 mo with a mean and median of 10 mo. Canine unicompartmental elbow was associated with 1 catastrophic (1%), 11 major (10.7%), and 28 minor (27.2%) complications. Outcomes following CUE were reported as full function in 49 cases (47.6%), acceptable function in 45 cases (43.7%), and unacceptable function in 9 cases (8.7%). We conclude that CUE arthroplasty is an appropriate consideration for treatment of medial compartment disease of the elbow in dogs.


Résultats cliniques associés à l'utilisation initiale du système d'arthroplastieCanine Unicompartmental Elbow (CUE) Arthroplasty SystemMD. Nous avons évalué les résultats à long et à moyen terme relativement à la fonction et aux complications chez les chiens subissant une arthroplastie du coude unicompartimental canin (CUC) pour le traitement de la maladie compartimentale médiale du coude. Cette série prospective de cas multicentres représente le premier groupe de cas cliniques à recevoir une arthroplastie CUC. Les cas (chaque coude qui a subi une CUC réalisée par un chirurgien participant) étaient inscrits dans une base de données électroniques et suivis de manière prospective afin de déterminer et de consigner toutes les complications connexes ainsi que les résultats fonctionnels. Il y avait 103 cas provenant de 18 chirurgiens. Le temps de suivi final s'échelonnait de 6 à 47 mois avec une moyenne et une médiane de 10 mois. Le coude compartimental canin a été associé à 1 complication catastrophique (1 %), à 11 complications majeures (10,7 %) et à 28 complications mineures (27,2 %). Les résultats après l'arthroplastie CUC ont été signalés comme une fonction complète dans 49 cas (47,6 %), une fonction acceptable dans 45 cas (43,7 %) et une fonction inacceptable dans 9 cas (8,7 %). Nous avons conclu que l'arthroplastie CUC est une considération appropriée pour le traitement de la maladie compartimentale médiale du coude chez les chiens.(Traduit par Isabelle Vallières).

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To describe the technique for, and long-term clinical outcome of, a modified hip toggle stabilization using the TightRope® system for coxofemoral luxation repair. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case series. METHODS: Medical records (July 2008-July 2010) including radiographs (17 limbs) of dogs that had coxofemoral luxation repaired with the TightRope system were reviewed. Follow-up (≥12 months) was obtained by telephone interview of owners. Six dogs were available for re-evaluation, radiographs, and objective gait analysis. RESULTS: Follow-up (mean, 24 months; range, 12-43 months) by telephone interview was available for 17 dogs. Of these, 6 dogs were re-evaluated (mean, 7.5 months; median 12.5 months: range, 4-24 months) and had gait analysis. Mean duration of luxation before surgical intervention was 7.5 days (median, 7 days; range, 2-44 days). There was a single case of relaxation 27 months postoperatively. One dog died from non-surgical related circumstances. Objective gait analysis showed equal pelvic limb use in all 6 dogs available for re-evaluation. All owners of living dogs reported limb function as being good to excellent, and perceived that their dogs were pain free. Radiographs (mean, 7.5 months; median, 12.5 months; range, 4-24 months post surgery) of 6 dogs showed no progression of osteoarthritis in comparison to immediate postoperative radiographs. CONCLUSIONS: Hip toggle with the TightRope system as a prosthetic ligament of the head of the femur produces a favorable clinical outcome with high owner acceptance.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and quantify in vitro dimensional changes of ameroid ring constrictors (ARCs) with and without the outer stainless steel ring in place over time. SAMPLE POPULATION: 12 ARCs (5.0-mm diameter). PROCEDURES: 6 ARCs were immersed in canine plasma baths for 34 days without the stainless steel outer ring in place (group N), and 6 ARCs were immersed in canine plasma baths with the stainless steel outer ring in place (group R). The ARCs were digitally imaged at day 0, daily for the first 10 days, then on days 14, 20, 27, and 34. Inner diameter, outer diameter, luminal area, and height were measured for each time point. Volume and weight of rings were obtained at the start and completion of the study. RESULTS: The inner diameter, outer diameter, and luminal area were significantly different between the 2 groups over the course of 34 days. The inner diameter and luminal area of the R-group constructs did not change significantly, while the inner diameter, outer diameter, luminal area, and height of N-group constructs all significantly increased over the course of the study. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: R-group constructs had insignificant centripetal swelling without ring closure, whereas N-group constructs had significant generalized centrifugal expansion. Results of this study indicated that the outer stainless steel ring of an ARC may not be necessary for attenuation and closure of some single extrahepatic portosystemic shunts.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To report clinical outcome and complications after pancarpal arthrodesis using circular external skeletal fixation (CESF) in dogs. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective study. ANIMALS: Dogs (n=9) with carpal injury. METHODS: Medical records including radiographs (10 limbs) with underlying severe carpal injury that had pancarpal arthrodesis with CESF were reviewed. Short-term follow-up (>6 months) was obtained by phone interview of owners. RESULTS: Mean weight was 24.5 kg (range, 10.1-69.5 kg). Mean duration until CESF removal was 110.6 days (range, 72-149 days). Complications in all dogs were mild postoperative edema of the distal aspect of the limb and initial mild serous discharge form exit points of CSEF wires. Follow-up (mean, 328 days; range, 190-541 days) was available for 8 dogs. All owners reported limb function and cosmesis as being excellent, and perceived that their animals were pain free. Perception of fixator care difficulty, as reported by owners, varied significantly based on previous splint management experience; owners who had experienced splint management for >1 month found fixator care equal to or easier than splint management. CONCLUSION: Pancarpal arthrodesis with a CESF produces a favorable clinical outcome with high owner acceptance. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Pancarpal arthrodesis by use of CESF is a clinically applicable technique and may offer advantages over internal fixation with respect to postoperative complications.
