Feline IVDE can be diagnosed by MRI and carry a good prognosis after surgical decompression.

3 Tesla MRA and MRI allow excellent visualization of the ligamentous morphology and may be helpful in the diagnostic process of carpal sprains in dogs.

Setting the postoperative TPA at 6° may cause excessive rotation in patients with a normal tensile force of the stifle flexor muscles.

The C-LOX device seems to be a valuable alternative to more complicated distraction-fusion techniques.

An indirect decompression technique can eliminate dynamic movements and result in regression of vertebral canal bony proliferation in dogs with OA-CSM.

The advantages related to the minimally invasive approach and implant removal could make the supercutaneous plating (SCP) an alternative to the traditional external skeletal fixation.

This technique is technically feasible and may facilitate the clinical use of minimally invasive osteosynthesis techniques.

The fourfold increase in the RT seen in dogs with MCD may contribute to the rotational overload proposed recently.

The tibial tuberosity advancement technique leads to acceptable outcomes in small dogs with cranial cruciate ligament rupture.

Omission of the third innermost locking screw during bridging osteosynthesis subjected to bending forces led to a 20% reduction in construct stiffness.
