Dislocation of the Os Carpi Radiale in a Dog

Köpeklerde ender olarak rastlandığı bildirilen os carpiradiale çıkığı olgusunu ve operatif sağaltımını meslektaşlarımıza sunmayı amaçladık. 10 yaşlı, kastre erkek, Terrier ırkı köpek sağ bacakta topallık anamneziyle Yakın Doğu Üniversitesi Hayvan Hastanesine getirildi. Klinik muayenede sağ karpal eklemde şişlik, eklem hareketinde ağrı görüldü. Mediolateral ve dorsopalmar radyografide, radiokarpal kemiğin dorsopalmar luksasyonu belirlendi. Ksilazin (1mg/kg, İM) ve Ketamin (10 mg/kg, İM) genel anestezisi altında açık redüksiyon uygulandı. 4 hafta sonra yapılan klinik muayenede, karpal eklemin ve basışın normal olduğu görüldü. Mediolateral ve dorsopalmar radyografide; os carpiradiale'nin repozisyonunun gerçekleşmiş olduğu izlendi.

Bir Köpekte Os Carpi Radiale Çıkığı

In this report, we aimed to present our colleagues the phenomenon of dislocation of the os carpiradiale, which is rarely seen in dogs. A 10-year-old, spayed male Terrier was referred to the Animal Hospital of Near East Unıversity, TRNC, with the anamnesis of having lameness of the right front limb. Clinical examination of the right carpus showed soft-tissues welling, pain on motion of the carpal joint. Medio-lateral and dorso-palmar radiographs of the right carpus determined dorsopalmar luxation of the radiocarpal bone. Open reduction was performed under general anesthesia with Xylazine (1 mg/kg IM) and Ketamine (10 mg/kg IM). In 4 weeks after postoperative clinical examination, the carpal joints and walking was seen normal. Mediolateral and dorsopalmar radiographs of the os carpiradiale was determined to have occurred repositioning.
