20210903 -【Necrosis of the femoral head】A French bulldog, THR surgery successfully

A French bulldog, called Wanzi, 3 years old, female (unneutered), 8.6kg. The right hind limb was lame. The examination revealed necrosis and a fracture of the right femoral head, no patellar luxation, and no rupture of cranial cruciate ligament. It is recommended to perform total hip replacement (THR).

The BlueSAO Micro&Nano THRSystemwas used for the hip replacement surgery. The implants used 14mm cemented cup, 2# cemented femoral stem, and 8mm (+0) femoral head. The postoperative X-rays showed that the angle of the acetabular cup was up to standard, and the femoral stem was implanted in good condition. The surgery was very successful and we hope to recover as soon as possible!

Thanks for Dr. Du from Kunming Hengjia Animal Hospital of Yunnan province bringing us the case.
