A specific canine bone anatomical replica, a cutting guide, and a TRP were designed and provided for surgery. Surgical records, clinical and radiographic reassessments, complications, pre- and postoperative lameness, type and degree of patellar luxation, and TRP and patellar position after surgery were reviewed. Clinical outcomes were defined as full, acceptable, or unacceptable function.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2003The TRP was implanted in 60 femoral trochleae: 48 unilateral and 12 bilateral. Successful correction of patellar luxation was achieved in 59\/60 cases. TRP was applied with other surgical techniques in 36\/60 of the cases and as the only surgical procedure in 24\/60 cases. Overall, three complications were observed: two minor and one major (patellar luxation recurrence). Neither implant loosening nor infection was observed. The mean radiographic follow-up was 3.8 months. At the time of the final follow-up, 57\/60 cases were scored as fully functional.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion\u2003The TRP application either alone or in combination with other surgical techniques allowed for correction of patellar luxation and improvement in preoperative lameness with nominal complications. TRP could represent a potentially reliable alternative to trochleoplasty.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0043-1776331","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,1]],"date-time":"2023-11-01T00:42:06Z","timestamp":1698799326000},"page":"098-106","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Trochlear Ridge Prostheses for Reshaping Femoral Trochlear Ridges in Dogs with Patellar Luxation"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"37","author":[{"given":"Tommaso","family":"Nicetto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Diagnostica Piccoli Animali, Clinica Veterinaria Pedrani, Vicenza, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3396-4768","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Federico","family":"Longo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic for Small Animal Surgery, University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,31]]},"reference":[{"issue":"01","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"59","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0037-1616589","article-title":"Frequency and distribution of patellar luxation in dogs. 134 cases (2000 to 2005)","volume":"20","author":"M R Alam","year":"2007","journal-title":"Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol"},{"issue":"01","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"32","DOI":"10.3415\/VCOT-08-01-0009","article-title":"The prevalence of canine patellar luxation in three centres.
