All sacroiliac luxations were stabilized with a single positional 2.4-mm cortical titanium self-tapping screw. The pelvic floor was also repaired in selected cats. Screw entry points and angles determined in a prior study of cadavers were used. Radiographs were taken before surgery and during follow-up evaluations to assess postoperative sacroiliac luxation reduction, implant placement, and repair stability.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>\n                    \u2014All implants were placed correctly. Iatrogenic sciatic nerve injuries occurred in 2 cats. Median time to ambulation was 1.5 days for cats with sacroiliac luxation as the sole injury. Radiographic outcome of sacroiliac luxation repair was excellent in 15 of 17 repairs, good in 1 of 17 repairs, and poor in 1 of 17 repairs. Clinical outcome was excellent in 11 of 15 cats and good in 4 of 15 cats.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Conclusions and Clinical Relevance<\/jats:bold>\n                    \u2014Insertion of a positional screw across the sacroiliac joint via a ventral abdominal approached can be an alternative to conventional techniques of sacroiliac luxation repair in cats. This novel technique allowed repair of bilateral sacroiliac luxation, repair of pelvic floor fractures, and treatment of soft tissue injuries of the abdominal cavity or abdominal organs with a single approach.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2460\/ajvr.69.4.549","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,4,1]],"date-time":"2008-04-01T10:59:31Z","timestamp":1207047571000},"page":"549-556","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Ventral abdominal approach for screw fixation of sacroiliac luxation in clinically affected cats"],"prefix":"10.2460","volume":"69","author":[{"given":"Luc R.","family":"Borer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katja","family":"Voss","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pierre M.","family":"Montavon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1272","reference":[{"key":"ref1","series-title":"Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"122","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0038-1633081","article-title":"Characteristics of pelvic fracture in the cat","volume":"5","author":"Bookbinder","year":"1992"},{"key":"ref2","series-title":"J Small Anim Pract","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"457","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1748-5827.1977.tb05912.x","article-title":"A survey of bone fractures in the cat","volume":"18","author":"Hill","year":"1977"},{"key":"ref3","series-title":"Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol","first-page":"167","article-title":"Pelvic fractures in the dog and cat: a classification system and review of 556 cases","volume":"4","author":"Messmer","year":"2004"},{"key":"ref4","series-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc","first-page":"208","article-title":"Pelvic osteotomy as a treatment for obstipation in cats with acquired stenosis of the pelvic canal: six cases (1978\u20131989)","volume":"200","author":"Schrader","year":"1992"},{"key":"ref5","series-title":"Textbook of small animal surgery","first-page":"1989","article-title":"Fractures of the pelvis","author":"Tomlinson","year":"2003"},{"key":"ref6","series-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc","first-page":"569","article-title":"Peripheral nerve injury associated with fracture or fracture-dislocation of the pelvis in dogs and cats: 34 cases (1978\u20131982)","volume":"190","author":"Jacobson","year":"1987"},{"key":"ref7","series-title":"Compend Contin Educ Pract Vet","first-page":"493","article-title":"Sacroiliac luxations","volume":"7","author":"Hulse","year":"1985"},{"key":"ref8","series-title":"Small animal orthopedics and fracture repair","first-page":"398","article-title":"Sacroiliac fracture-luxation","author":"Brinker","year":"1997"},{"key":"ref9","series-title":"Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"146","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0038-1632803","article-title":"Surgical anatomy of the feline sacroiliac joint for lag screw fixation of sacroiliac fracture-luxation","volume":"17","author":"Burger","year":"2004"},{"key":"ref10","series-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc","first-page":"1198","article-title":"Ventrolateral approach for repair of sacroiliac fracture-dislocation in the dog and cat","volume":"186","author":"Montavon","year":"1985"},{"key":"ref11","series-title":"Kleintierpraxis","first-page":"287","article-title":"Sacroiliac luxation in the cat.
