Objective Medial patellar luxation (MPL) is prevalent in small dogs; however, the causes vary, and few studies have reported tibial deformities.

Objective To compare the exposure of the craniolateral approach (CLA) with craniomedial approach (CMA) of the radius in dogs. To make general observations of each approach that may affect the ease of fracture repair.

Objective The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for refracture after radial union in small-breed dogs.
