Biological press-fit PGR- Patellar dislocation in West Highland Dogs

Breed: West Highland Dog

Age: 1 year old

Gender: Female

Weight: 6Kg

Due to bilateral patellar lateral dislocation and lateral trochlear spine deformity, it was decided to perform PGRsurgery for treatment. During the operation, both sides were replaced with BlueSAO press-fit biological PGR system #4 implants. The operation was successfully completed and itrecovered quickly. Itcan walk freely on the third day after the operation. Hope to recover soon!

Thanks to Dr.Shao Zhiwei fromWuhan Weiwei Animal Hospital, for sharing the clinical case of the BlueSAO biological press-fit PGR system!

The PGR surgery will bring a painless joint to patients with patellar dislocation.

Doctor Jia Xinsheng's view is that the PGR surgery will bring a painless joint to patients with patellar dislocation, and he suggests that the PGR surgery be adopted for eligible cases of patellar dislocation. For instance, cases where the patella flat, deformed, underdeveloped, too narrow, or where the veterinarian's assessment of the deepening of the patella groove fails to yield effective results, etc., all recommend the use of patella groove replacement surgery (PGR).
