A clinical case of total hip replacement surgery in a teddy with Legg-Calve-Perthes Disease

Teddy, 2 years old, male, 5.6 Kg. The dog recently raised his left leg sometimes during walking. He fears exerting force on his left leg to support his body. He showed significant pain when extending the left hip joint. The dog was diagnosed with Legg-Calve-Perthes Disease after an X-ray examination. Total hip replacement was chosen. Total hip replacement surgery was performed using BlueSAO cemented Micro&Nano Hip system.

Implants: 14mm cemented cup, #2 cemented femoral stem, and 8mm (+0) femoral head. The surgery went well and the postoperative recovery was good!

Thanks to Dr.Gao from Shenyang Mukden Wanbo Animal Hospital of Liaoning province bringing us the case.
