Abstract

To retrospectively compare two clinical subsets of dogs suffering tibialtuberosity (TT) fracture (incidental finding or sudden onset severe lameness)as a complication of tibial tuberosity advancement (TTA) and to report thesurgical management and outcome of TT fracture as a complication of TTA.2. To retrospectively identify factors that predispose to tibial tuberosity (TT)fracture after tibial tuberosity advancement (TTA) in dogs.3. To examine perioperative factors affecting surgical site infection (SSI) ratefollowing tibial tuberosity advancement (TTA) including technical errors thatpredispose to tibial tuberosity fracture as a way to assess the associationbetween construct instability and surgical site infection.4. To retrospectively review and describe the incidence of complicationsassociated with tibial tuberosity advancement (TTA) surgeries in a group ofboxer dogs (n=36 stifles) and compare the data with a non-boxer controlpopulation (n=271 stifles)...
