Biological press-fit PGR + TPLO- Shiba Inu patellar dislocation + anterior cruciate ligament rupture ~ Dr. Guan Narisu from Shanghai Shengtai

Breed: Shiba Inu,

Nickname: Million

Age: 3 years

Gender: Female

Weight: 14 Kg

One week ago, the dog suddenly developed left hind limb lameness. The left anterior cruciate ligament was ruptured, and the left patella had a grade 4 dislocation, while the right patella had a grade 3 dislocation. A PGRand TPLO surgery was decided upon for treatment.

During the operation, the BlueSAObiologicalPGR system#4 implant was used for replacement, and the BlueSAOTPLO-7 mm L pure titanium locking plate was used for internal fixation. The surgery caused minimal damage, and the recovery would be faster. The dog was able to bear weight and walk 3 days after the surgery. Hope for a speedy recovery.

Thanks to Dr.Guan NarisufromShanghai Shengtai Pet Hospital, for sharing the clinical case of the BlueSAO biological press-fit PGR system+TPLO 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).
