This article also evaluates the outcome of these patients treated conservatively.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Materials and Methods\u2003Medical records of 100 dogs (113 limbs) that underwent triple tibial osteotomy procedure were evaluated. Information obtained included signalment, preoperative, immediate postoperative and 6-week postoperative radiographic findings, intraoperative and postoperative complications. Long-term outcome was assessed using an owner questionnaire.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Results\u2003Postoperative tibial tuberosity fracture was identified in 25\/113 stifles. The only variable associated with the presence or absence of postoperative tibial tuberosity fracture within 6 weeks of surgery was postoperative cortical hinge width (CHW) or an indexed value of CHW to tibial width (TW). Using either a cut-off value of CHW of \u2265 5.5\u2009mm or a cut-off value of CHW\/TW of \u2265 0.21, only 1\/27 stifle in our study developed tibial tuberosity fracture. Long-term owner evaluation of outcome was considered excellent or good in 65\/70 stifles.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Conclusion\u2003A narrow CHW at the distal cortical attachment of the tibial crest had a strong association with the development of postoperative tibial tuberosity fracture. No other patient or surgical variables were associated with tibial tuberosity fracture. Patients that developed tibial tuberosity fracture and were conservatively managed did not have a worse clinical outcome than patients that did not develop tibial tuberosity fracture.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0039-1685163","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,9]],"date-time":"2019-04-09T23:15:11Z","timestamp":1554851711000},"page":"324-331","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Prevalence, Risk Factors and Outcome of Postoperative Tibial Tuberosity Fractures in Dogs Undergoing Triple Tibial Osteotomy Surgery"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Benito","family":"de la Puerta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"North Downs Specialist Referral, Bletchingley, Surrey, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Matteo","family":"Rossanese","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Small Animal Teaching Hospital, School of Veterinary Science, University of Liverpool, Neston, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Terry","family":"Emmerson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"North Downs Specialist Referral, Bletchingley, Surrey, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,9]]},"container-title":["Veterinary and Comparative Orthopaedics and Traumatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0039-1685163.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,18]],"date-time":"2019-07-18T22:37:39Z","timestamp":1563489459000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0039-1685163"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,9]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"04","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,18]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,7]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0039-1685163","relation":{},"ISSN":["0932-0814","2567-6911"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0932-0814","type":"print"},{"value":"2567-6911","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,9]]}}}
