Hip

The hybrid THA did not prove to have greater clinical benefits for use in primary THA surgery.

Recognition and incidence of postoperative polar gaps after THR may vary among surgeons. Gaps do not warrant clinical intervention.

This finding suggests that this simple, minimally invasive diagnostic technique has potential for discriminating dysplastic dogs from dogs with normal hips.

The device significantly improved the surgeon's performance without surgical assistance.

These results, in combination with the previous results for the measurement of the laxity index, support the use of the VMBDD as a reliable in-house evaluation method to assess the hip joint by trained clinicians.

This technique may be appropriate in dogs with high ALO, luxoid hips, and prior failed revision attempts.

This report provides evidence that limb salvage can result in satisfactory levels of activity.

Minimally invasive, arthroscopic guided toggle rod stabilization may be an alternative to the currently accepted open approach when addressing coxofemoral luxations.

The ratios of the muscle widths may be used as reference values to assess muscular atrophy or hypertrophy in cases of bilateral or unilateral orthopaedic diseases of the pelvic limbs.

The study shows that FHNO could lead to severe functional deficits in large breed dogs. An extensive follow-study is necessary to more accurately determine the frequency of such complications.
