Management of a complete stifle luxation with a hinged transarticular hybrid external fixator in a dog
Öz
A 2 years old, 15 kg, male, mix breed dog that was presented with a right open tibial fracture and left complete stifle luxation. Cranial and caudal cruciate ligaments with medial and lateral collateral ligaments were completely torn. Stabilization of the stifle was established with a hinged transarticular external fixator. After fixator removal, radiographic findings were normal besides some periarticular osteophyte formations. Physical therapy was initiated postoperatively. Now the dog can perform all daily activities with mild lameness

İki yaşlı, 15 kg ağırlığında, dişi, melez bir köpek sağ tibia’da açık kırık ve sol diz ekleminde çıkık şikayeti ile kliniğe getirildi. Sol diz ekleminde ön ve arka çapraz bağlar ile lateral ve medial kollateral ligamentlerin kopuk olduğu belirlendi. Diz ekleminin stabilizasyonu transartiküler eksternal fiksatör ile sağlandı. Fiksatörün uzaklaştırılmasından sonra radyografik bulgular periartiküler osteofit formasyonları dışında normal olarak gözlendi. Postoperatif olarak fizik tedaviye başlandı. An itibariyle köpeğin tüm günlük aktivitelerini hafif topallık bulguları ile gerçekleştirebildiği öğrenildi
