외상성 함입탈구는 유치열에서는 흔하지만 영구치열에서는 매우 드문 질환으로 그 예후가 좋지 않은 것으로 널리 알려져 있다. 치료법으로는, 치아의 자발적 맹출을 허용하거나, 외과적으로 재위치시킨 후 고정시키는 방법, 외과적인 탈구술 및 교정력을 이용한 재위치술 등이 있었으나, 각각의 단점들이 보고되어 왔다. 한편 치아를 외과적으로 아탈구시킨 후 바로 교정력을 적용시켜, 좋은 성과가 보고된 바 있었는데 완전 함입례에서는 교정용 button 이나 bracket을 bonding하기가 적절치 않다. 본 증례는 비강내로까지의 심한 함입탈구 소견을 보이는 환아의 치료에 관한 것이다. 우선 full mucogingival flap을 행하고, 치주인대의 압박 괴사를 최소화시키기 위해 disimpaction시킬 목적으로 백악-법랑 경계부가 노출되지 않는 범주 내에서 치조와 내로 외과적 재위치 시킨 후 교정적 견인력을 적용시키는 방법을 통해 비교적 양호한 결과를 얻게 되었다.

A Korean goral (immature, female) was presented with paraplegia following motor vehicle trauma. The patient was diagnosed with an L5-6 vertebral fracture-luxation based on digital radiographs. Surgical reduction and stabilization of the fracture-luxation were performed via a dorsal approach to the lumbar spine. It was confirmed in surgery that the patient had L5-7 spinous process fractures, L6 bilateral articular process fractures, and an L5-6 luxation. Free fragments were removed and the luxation was reduced. During reduction, caudodorsal dislocation of the L5 caudal vertebral end plate was discovered and the displaced end plate was removed. The L5-6 vertebral luxation was stabilized using pins and bone cement. However, the presence of an intact spinal cord was not confirmed. Two weeks postoperatively the patient became dyspneic and arrested. A necropsy was performed, which revealed that the surgical stabilization was intact. Pulmonary edema was identified and the immediate cause of death was determined to be systemic inflammatory response syndrome.

A 30 kg, 6-year-old spayed female Samoyed dog was referred with a history of intermittent weight-bearing lameness in her right hindlimb for 3 weeks. The patient hadsurgery to correct a medial patellar luxation in the same limb 3 years prior. Based on the physical examination and radiographic findings, MPL and CCLR of the right hindlimb were diagnosed. Pre-surgical arthroscopy examination was performed, revealing a complete rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament, medial caudal meniscal tears and fibrotic cartilagechanges on the trochlear groove. An arthroscopy-assisted partial meniscectomy was used to repair themedial caudal meniscus. To correct the tibial plateau angle and medial patellar luxation, a tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) was performed. A tibial tuberosity transposition (TTT) was performed to realignthe quadriceps mechanism with the trochlear block recession followed by soft tissue reconstruction. The post-surgical recovery was uneventful, and the patient was weight-bearing with normal ambulation on the repaired limb. There were no complications, and the implants were well positioned at the last follow-up. The clinical outcome of the caseindicates that combining TPLO with TTTis a good surgical option for treatingconcurrent CCLR and MPL.

Medial patellar luxation in dogs is one of the most common patellar problems presented to the veterinary practitioner. It is observed in toy and miniature breed and the majority of cases is a congenital form. Because of extensor mechanism's instability, it causes deformity and disorder in the growth of the affected limb when the luxation is left without treatment As lameness is not easily detectable in puppies, early diagnosis and correction are essential for therapy. Up to now, there has not been any reports refering to the diagnostic methods and the optimal age for correction in young dogs. Thirteen 45-90 days old puppies, have grade I and/or II medial patellar luxation. Only by palpation, all 13 dogs were diagnosed of patelar luxation. Skyline radiographic view was useful to interpret patellar morphology and depth of trochlear groove only above 60 days old. However, it was difficult to make definite diagnosis patellar luxation. The caudocranial and lateral radiographic view as well as ultrasonographic skyline view were not showed of patellar luxation. 2 puppies had unilateral patellar luxation and 11 puppies had bilateral patellar luxation which more serious on the left than on the right. Only 3 puppies among 11 puppies with bilateral patellar luxation were observed of lameness degree 1. Regardless of grade of patellar luxation and lameness, we performed trochlear chondroplasty using a U-shape sculpture blade to minimize cartilage injury, transposition of tibia tuberosity with No. 1 Supramid to align extensor mechanism and lateral imbrication. After surgery, we examined the operated animal daily for 10 days and on 15, 30 and 60 days after surgery respectively. After operation, pain and fever became normal on 7 days, swelling on 10 days, respectively. On 10 days after surgery, dogs showed normal standing position, and normal walking was observed in 15 days after surgery. In force plate analysis, the operated legs were normal weight bearing at 30 days after operation. After surgery, not only patellar luxation and clinical signs have been gradually reduced but also bone growth have become normal without showing growth physeal plate injury. The survival rate of puppies over 62 days old was 100%, while 42-45 days old 37.5%. The above results suggest that optimal age for surgical correction of congenital medial patellar luxation is recommended over 60 days old. In conclusion, combination of trochlear chondroplasty, transposition of tibia tuberosity, and lateral retinacular imbrication is appropriate for over 60 days old puppies to efficiently correct patellar luxation.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the results obtained from three surgical techniques (retinacular imbrication, trochleoplasty and tibia tuberosity transposition), which were simultaneously applied for correction of patellar luxation. Eleven, (6 to 108 months) old dogs were presented. The dogs showed, medial patellar luxation (17 stifle joint) and lateral patellar luxation (2 stifle joint) ranging from grade 1 to 4. By palpation and radiographic view, all 11 dogs were diagnosed as patellar luxation. Bilateral patellar luxation was diagnosed in 8 dogs. After operation, the dogs were monitored daily for 7 days and on the 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th and 30th days. Lameness progressively decreased in all dogs around 30 days after surgery, and the patients were showed normal walking. Normal walking was possible in 2 dogs after 4 days, in a dog after 5 days, a dog after 7 days, 3 dogs after 10 days,2 dogs after 15 days, a dog after 25 days and a dog after 30 days (Mean$\pm$S.E: 12.27$\pm$2.57). The recovery took 14 days in dogs with bilateral patellar luxation, and 9 days in dogs with unilateral patellar luxation. Trend of decrease of lameness grade in bilateral patellar corrected dogs were similar to that in unilateral patellar corrected dogs. Swelling, pain and fever disappeared on 7 days. In conclusion, combination of tibial tuberosity transposition, retinacular imbrication and trochleoplasty is appropriate for dogs with patellar luxation.

A 2-year-old, castrated male Chihuahua dog was referred for revision surgery for reluxation of the patella following surgery for medial patellar luxation (MPL) of the left stifle joint. On general inspection, the patient showed bilateral hindlimb weight-bearing lameness. On physical examination, bilateral non-reducible MPL was detected through palpation. Radiographs revealed bone deformities of both hindlimbs. Computed tomography (CT) was applied for a three-dimensional (3D) printing bone model to establish an accurate surgical plan. The bone plate was pre-contoured over the 3D-printing bone model after execution of corrective osteotomy and sterilized prior to use in surgery. Corrective osteotomy was performed through a staged, bilateral procedure. The patient showed improvement of limb function following surgery without reluxation of the patella. The use of 3D-printing bone model for accurate surgical planning of corrective osteotomy appears to be effective in increasing the accuracy of surgery. That may lead to successful surgical outcomes.

A 5-year-old 6 kg male mongrel (case 1) and a 7-year-old 4.3 kg male yorkshire terrier (case 2) were presented to Chonbuk animal medical center (CAMC). Both animals had non-weight bearing hind limb lameness. Case 1 had complete rupture of cranial cruciate ligament with grade 3 medial patellar luxation. Case 2 had complete cranial cruciate ligament rupture with grade 4 medial patellar luxation. During surgery, in both cases, trochlear block recession was performed followed by CORA based leveling osteotomy (CBLO) and tibial tuberosity transposition (TTT). General soft tissue reconstructions for medial patellar luxation including medial releasing and lateral imbrication were also performed. Postoperatively, both animals demonstrated excellent recovery and regained normal weight bearing of the affected hind limb without any recognizable complication. CBLO followed by TTT can be a curative surgical option without complications in cases of cranial cruciate ligament rupture with high-grade medial patellar luxation in small breed dogs.

Sacroiliac dislocation is the separation of the iliac wing from the pelvic bone and needs to be repaired by surgery. Corrective surgical methods include open reduction and minimally invasive techniques. In the present study, we used a minimally invasive surgical technique in seven dogs with sacroiliac dislocation. Five cases had unilateral sacroiliac joint luxation and two cases had bilateral sacroiliac joint luxation; all were referred to hospital after being hit by an automobile. All cases were treated with a fluoroscope-assisted, minimally invasive technique. Patients were evaluated by measuring surgery time, postoperative ambulatory time, and calculating pelvic canal diameter ratios. Surgery time was measured from initial incision to completion of skin closure. Mean surgery time was 30.6 minutes in unilateral sacroiliac joint luxation and 68 minutes in bilateral sacroiliac joint luxation. Mean preoperative pelvic canal diameter ratio was 1.22 (${\pm}0.27$), immediate postoperative pelvic canal diameter ratio was 1.26 (${\pm}0.10$), and at 2 weeks after surgery, the pelvic canal diameter ratio was 1.37 (${\pm}0.22$). All cases were ambulatory within 1 week and mean postoperative ambulatory time was 5 days. Based on the results, the use of a minimally invasive technique for correction of sacroiliac dislocation can decrease surgical time, lessen operative and postoperative burdens on patients, and provide owners with a good prognosis.
