CASES

Acetabular-iliac plate

A case of a 1.8 kg cat with a pelvic fracture stabilized using our new 1.5 acetabular–iliac plate.

The oblique fracture near the acetabulum made it impossible to use a standard acetabular plate. The acetabular–iliac plate allowed for safe fixation by securing it above the acetabulum and along the iliac wing.

Toggle-Pin Set

Patient: 15 years old, 4.2 kg, chronic traumatic luxation of the left hip joint occurring over 2 months ago. 

The luxation is caudomedial (whereas it typically occurs craniolaterally).

Set: Toggle-Pin 2.9×10, Washer 6×1 mm, HS-FIBER® USP2.

Anti‑luxation TPLO Washer

Patient: Frodo, a 4 kg Yorkshire Terrier, diagnosed with a ruptured cranial cruciate ligament and patellar luxation.

Performing the TPLO procedure together with anti luxation washer allowed to address both problems during a single surgery. The TPLO technique corrected the consequences of the CCL rupture, while the anti luxation washer made that the patella settled properly in the trochlear groove and returned to its correct movement path.
