Total hip replacement for hip dysplasia in Shiba Inu

Breed: Shiba Inu, weight: 10.4kg, age: 9m, gender: male

When this Shiba Inu was about six months old, it was found to have poor hip joint development and a semi-dislocated right femoral head. The round ligaments of Shiba Inu and Akita dogs are naturally loose, which is one of the reasons why they have a high incidence of hip dysplasia. A few months later, the dog had mild lameness in its right hind leg. Examination revealed that the right femoral head was completely dislocated with accompanying arthritis. The pet owner promptly chose BlueSAO small bone cement hip replacement system for the dog's hip replacement.After calibrating according to the Marker on BlueSAO iBlueVet planning software, select the appropriate femoral stem prosthesis and acetabular cup prosthesis. Preoperative planning uses a #3L cemented femoral stem, 16mm cemented cup, and spare 10mm femoral head prostheses with +0, +2, and +4 sizes. The final femoral head prosthesis is determined after testing with the femoral head prosthesis model during surgery.

Planned implants: #3L cemented femoral stem, 16mm cemented cup, and spare 10mm femoral head prostheses with +0, +2, and +4 sizes
