The purpose of this report is to describe the technique and the clinical outcome of three dogs affected by superficial digital flexor (SDF) tendon luxation treated using a calcaneal chondroplastic-like technique. A German Pinscher with bilateral and lateral SDF tendon luxation, a Griffon Nivernais with medial SDF tendon luxation following self-mutilation of the IV toe, and an American Staffordshire Terrier with a lateral luxation and having undergone calcaneal chondroplasty and primary repair of the retinacular tissues. A fibrocartilage flap covering the calcaneal groove was elevated, the subchondral bone was removed from beneath it, and the flap was pressed back into the deepened sulcus, keeping its distal attachment as a hinge point.

Purpose: Large and combined laryngoceles usually need an external approach. One difficulty in such approach was the dissection at the paraglottic space. To overcome such difficulty, a thyroid chondroplastic flap approach to the paraglottic space was designed.

The former lead-zinc mine at Mestersvig, Greenland, continues to contaminate the surrounding environment despite its operations ceasing over 50 years ago. Elevated concentrations of heavy metals are found in water, sediment and biota in the terrestrial, freshwater and marine environments. To shed light on the present contamination and its potential effects on local fish we investigated gill and liver histology of sculpins (Myoxocephalus spp.

Radiographs in all cases showed a broad-based soft tissue mass attached to the cortex with periosteal reaction and in two of them cortical disruption with extensive medullary involvement. Follow-ups were available in four cases (range 11 - 73 months) and revealed pelvic metastasis after 15 months with ultimately rapid dissemination and death in a 9-year-old girl and metastasis to the humerus after 13 months in a 15-year-old boy.

Current surgical techniques for laryngeal exposure pose distinct limitations. To address these issues, this article describes a novel surgical technique. Our technique, termed Transventricular Chondroplastic Laryngotomy, allows for extensive and direct external access to the endolarynx.
