Abstract

Medial patellar luxation (MPL) of dog is one of the most common joint diseases. This study performed to know rehabilitative effect after reconstruction as application with intramuscular electrostimulation (IMES) on the cranial part of sartorius muscle. In this study, the 12 dogs with operated medial luxation divided into electrostimulation group (n = 8) and no electrostimulation group (n = 4) measured affected sided range of motion, muscle mass, lameness score and weight bearing for hospitalization 2 weeks. IMES group showed significant results after operation on 5th day (p < 0.01). Except lameness score, IMES group showed significant results on 10th day (p < 0.05). As results, in small sized dog after reconstruction of MPL, IMES on the cranial part of sartorius muscle considered a great help in the initial rehabilitation.

개의 내측 슬개골 탈구는 가장 많이 발생하는 관절 질환 중 하나로 정복 수술 후 넙다리빗근에 전기 자극을 실시하여 재활효과를 관찰하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구는 내측 슬개골 탈구가 있는 소형견 12두를 대상으로 슬개골 탈구 정복술 후에 입원 2주 동안 수술한 후지의 앞쪽 넙다리빗근에 근육 내 전기자극 치료를 적용한 군(n = 8)과 대조군(n = 4)으로 나누어 관절가동범위, 근육 둘레, 파행 및 체중지지 정도를 측정하였다. 근육 내 전기자극을 실시한 군은 대조군에 비하여 관절가동범위, 근육 둘레, 파행점수 및 체중지지 정도 등 네 가지 사항 모두 수술 후 5일에는 유의성을 나타냈고(p < 0.01), 수술 후 10일에는 파행점수를 제외한 관절가동범위, 근육둘레 및 체중지지 정도의 항목에서 유의성을 보였다(p < 0.05). 이상의 결과로 볼 때, 소형견의 내측 슬개골 탈구 정복술을 실시한 후, 넙다리빗근에 전기자극을 실시하면 초기 재활치료에 도움이 많을 것으로 사료된다.
