Fractures of the caudal portion of the mandible and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) fracture-luxation can be challenging to treat with direct fixation methods. This paper describes a simple technique for the indirect treatment of caudal mandibular fracture and TMJ fracture-luxation using a subcutaneous loop of nylon leader line tunnelled around the maxilla, incisive and nasal bones, and under the mandible, placed just caudal to the canine teeth, and crimped ventral to the mandibular skin: a bignathic encircling and retaining device (BEARD). A BEARD was used to treat two immature dogs with simple, unilateral caudal mandibular fractures, six cats with unilateral injury (two with TMJ luxation, three with TMJ fracture-luxation, one with caudal mandibular fracture), and two cats with bilateral injury (comminuted caudal mandibular fracture with contralateral TMJ luxation; bilateral condylar neck fracture).

Primary lens luxation (PLL), a painful and blinding inherited condition, is common in several breeds of terrier. Here we have examined the Veterinary Medical Database of patient encounters and Canine Eye Registration Foundation (CERF) cases records for the last 10 years and found the diagnosis recorded in 85 breeds. We have performed association analysis using a genome-wide microsatellite screen to map mutations underlying the condition in miniature bull terriers and Lancashire heelers.
