Retrospective cohort study exploring the impact of tibial plateau angle on postoperative outcomes in TPLO and TTA Rapid (opens in new tab)

In this retrospective cohort study, complications and predisposing factors associated with tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) and tibial tuberosity advancement rapid (TTAr) were compared in 147 dogs treated for cranial cruciate ligament rupture (TPLO = 98, TTAr = 49). The complications were classified as minor or major, and statistical analyses were performed using logistic regression models. TTAr showed 40.8% (20/49) minor and 2.0% (1/49) major complications, while TPLO presented 37.8%...
