Köpeklerde diz ekleminin klinik, radyolojik ve bilgisayarlı tomografi sonuçlarının teşhis yönünden karşılaştırılması

Amaç: Diz eklemi lezyonlarının klinik, radyolojik ve bilgisayarlı tomografibulgularının teşhis açısından karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır.Ayrıca ön çapraz bağ kopuklarının erken teşhisinde bilgisayarlı tomografininetkinliğine bakıldı.Gereç ve Yöntem: 12 adet orta/büyük farklı ırk, cins, yaş ve ağırlıktaköpek çalışma materyali olarak kullanıldı. Klinik muayeneleri ardındanyürüyüş ve ağrı derecelendirme testleri (HVAS-Hudson VisualAnalog Scale, CBPI-Canine Brief Pain Inventory) yapıldı. Köpeklerdeekstremitelerdeki eşit olmayan ağırlık dağılımını ölçmek için basışanalizatörü kullanıldı. Üç yönlü radyografik muayene (ayakta cranio-caudal (CrCa), medio-lateral (ML), tibial kompreste mediolateral(ML)) yapıldı. Bu amaçla seyyar röntgen cihazı ve sabit röntgen cihazıkullanıldı. Tomografi uygulamasında bilgisayarlı tomografi yararlanıldı.Elde edilen verilerin istatiksel analizleri % olarak ifade edildi.Yürüyüş, ağrı ve basış analizlerinin aritmetik ortalamaları hesaplandı.Bulgular: Olguların klinik muayene ve basış analiz sonuçlarına göreproblemli ekstremite belirlendi. Bazı olgularda lig. collaterale medialedüzeyinden uygulanan basınç ve ekstremiteye yaptırılan ekstensiyondabelirgin bir eklem efuzyonu gözlendi. Tibial kompresyon testindetuberositas tibia’nın cranial yer değişimi fark edildi. Radyografik olarakcondylus medialis ve lateraliste belirgin derecelerde daralmalartespit edildi. 2 olgu’nun art. genu’sunda osteofitik üremeler belirlendi.Olguların çoğunda tibianın craniale rotasyonu görüldü. Bilgisayarlı tomografikmuayenede 1 olguda osteofitik üremeler belirlendi.Öneri: Art. genu problemlerini teşhisinde röntgen kullanımı özellikleosteofitik değişimlerin ortaya konması, tuberositas tibia’nın cranialeyer değişimi, patellar luksasyon’un teşhisinde yararlı tanısal bir yöntemdir.BT muayenesi ise direk çekim yapılırsa patella luksasyonu,tibia’nın craniale yer değişimi teşhislerinde yararlı olduğu gözlenmiştir.Art. genu eklemi problemlerinin ortaya konmasında BT yararlıdır.Fakat, kesitlerin alınması, kullanılan aletin modernize oluşu görselliğiher zaman etkilemektedir.

Comparison on diagnostic results of clinical, radiological and computed tomography of stifle joint in dogs

Aim: It is aimed to compare clinical, radiological and computed tomography findings of knee joint lesions in terms of diagnosis. In addition, early diagnosis of cranial cruciate ligament defects were assessed for effectiveness of computed tomography. Materials and Methods: 12 medium / large dogs with different breed, sex, age and breed were used as study materials. After the clinical examinations, Hudson Visual Analogue Scale and Canine Brief Pain Inventory were performed. In dogs, a force platform was used to measure unequal weight distribution in the extremities. Three positions of radiographic examination (standing cranio-caudal (CrCa), medio-lateral (ML), tibial compression mediolateral (ML)) was performed. For this purpose, mobile x-ray machine and fixed x-ray equipment were used. Computed tomography was used for tomographic examinations. Statistical analysis of the obtained data was expressed as %. Walking, pain and force platform results of arithemtic averages were used. Results: The problematic extremity was determined for according to the results of clinical examination and force platform of the cases. In some cases, pressure over the ligamentum collaterale mediale level showed that joint effusion on the extremity. Cranial displacement of tuberositas tibia was noted with the tibial compression test. Condylus medialis and lateral femoris were markedly narrowed with radiographically, art. genu of two cases were detected osteophytic production. In most of the cases, cranial rotation of the tibia was seen. Osteophyte production were identified in 1 case with computed tomographic examination. Conclusion: Especially for the identification of osteophytic production, cranial displacement of tuberosity tibia, diagnosis of patellar luxation in in Art. genu could be diagnosed by x-ray. Diagnosis of patellar luxation and cranial displacement of tibia is also observed with CT scan directly. But, CT is useful in revealed for knee joint problems. However, the taking of the sections, the modernization of the instrument should always affects the visuality.
