Biological press-fit PGR- Patellar dislocation in Husky dog

Species: Husky dog

Nickname: NIMO

Age: 9 years old

Gender: Male

Weight: 26.5 Kg

Severe arthritis, left hind limb swollen and limping. Three years ago, bilateral meniscal groove deepening + tibial tuberosity repositioning surgery was performed. After the surgery, the left hind limb did not recover well, and bilateral knee joints had severe arthritis. A decision was made to undergo PGRsurgery for treatment. During the operation, the BlueSAO biological PGRSystem#9 implant was used for replacement. The surgery was successfully completed. Hope a speedy recovery.

Thanks to Dr.Guan Narisufrom Shanghai Shengtai Pet 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).
