OBJECTIVES To describe the surgical technique and report short-term outcome for combined tibial plateau levelling osteotomy and tibial tuberosity transposition (TPLO-TTT) as an option in the treatment of cranial cruciate ligament insufficiency with concomitant medial patellar luxation. METHODS Medical records were reviewed (2011-2013) of dogs that underwent a standard tibial plateau levelling...

Luxation of the eyeball in two African patients is reported for its rarity. It followed minor trauma to the face and was reduced in both cases without permanent visual disability.

early osteointegration. On-growth of bone to porous coated prostheses is influenced by many factors such as the composition and topography of the surface, as well as the local biological and mechanical environment in the immediately adjacent bone. Given that the short stem femoral implant is orientated in a more oblique to transverse trajectory, it might be subjected to greater bending moments ...

INTRODUCTION Extrusive luxation is a traumatic dental injury caused by the action of oblique forces, characterized by partial displacement of the tooth out of its socket. The ideal treatment for this type of trauma involves repositioning the tooth in its socket. However, in cases where the tooth cannot be repositioned, different options may be considered, such as intentional reattachment and or...

65 Scapulohumeral Joint Luxation in a Dog INTRODUCTION Excision arthroplasty has been proposed as an alternative procedure for salvage of the canine scapulohumeral joint that cannot be effectively treated by conventional techniques (1, 2). Two techniques of excision shoulder arthroplasty have been described. In one technique, only an ostectomy of the glenoid cavity of the scapula was performed ...

La reconstruction des pertes de substance osseuses fémorales proximales étendues est un défi dans la hanche par prothèse totale (PTH). résection fémorale proximale (PRF), utilisée initialement les contextes tumoraux, une alternative aux allogreffes composites. Cependant, PRF présentent taux complication élevé, notamment luxation. Par ailleurs, cupules à double mobilité (CDM) sont efficaces prév...

Globe luxation is a painful and potentially vision-threatening condition in which the globe becomes trapped behind the eyelids requiring physician intervention in the emergency department or eye clinic. On presentation, the patient typically complains of an inability to close their eye, severe foreign body sensation, decreased vision, and significant eye pain. Although most visual symptoms are ...

In dentistry, elevator instruments are used to luxate teeth, and this technique imparts forces to tooth particles that sever the periodontal ligament around tooth roots inside the socket and expand alveolar bone around tooth particles. These effects can result in extraction of the tooth particles or facilitate systematic forceps extraction of the tooth particles. This article presents basic ora...
