Article Synopsis
- Two dogs experienced a spontaneous dislocation of the long digital extensor tendon.

- Both dogs showed no signs of lameness after surgery, with follow-up periods of 59 and 15 months, respectively.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of cold compression therapy (CCT) on postoperative pain, lameness, range of motion of the stifle joint, and swelling following tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) in dogs.
Design: Randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial.
Animals: 34 client-owned dogs with unilateral deficiency of a cranial cruciate ligament undergoing TPLO.
Objectives: To determine the effect of tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) on patellar tendon angle (PTA) in dogs.
Study Design: Cadaveric radiographic study.
Animals: Pelvic limb pairs (n=5) obtained from skeletally mature dogs, weighing 22-36 kg.
Objective: To report surgical planning, technique, and long-term outcome of custom transcutaneous tibial implants used to restore ambulation after bilateral pelvic limb amputation in a dog.
Study Design: Case report.
Animals: A 4-year-old, 25.
