Following TPLO completion, all limbs underwent mechanical testing that included 10,000 cycles of cyclic axial compression followed by testing to failure at a displacement rate of 1 mm\/s. Displacement during cyclic testing; load generated at 0.5, 1.0, and 3.0 mm of displacement; ultimate load; and failure type were recorded for each limb. Mean values were compared among the groups.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>RESULTS<\/jats:bold> None of the specimens failed during cyclic testing. None of the variables assessed during mechanical testing differed significantly among the 4 groups. During testing to failure, the majority (17\/20) of specimens failed as the result of a long oblique fracture through the first screw hole in the distal segment.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE<\/jats:bold> Results indicated that the axial compressive strength and stiffness of a TPLO construct were not significantly affected by the addition of 1 or 2 ARPs or the presence of an intact fibula. These findings appear to support removal of ARPs during uncomplicated TPLOs, but further research is warranted to assess the effect of ARP removal on bone healing and complication rates.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2460\/ajvr.79.6.621","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,30]],"date-time":"2018-05-30T15:09:50Z","timestamp":1527692990000},"page":"621-627","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Contribution of antirotational pins and an intact fibula to the ex vivo compressive strength of four tibial plateau leveling osteotomy constructs"],"prefix":"10.2460","volume":"79","author":[{"given":"Jeffery J.","family":"Biskup","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Joseph P.","family":"Weigel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peter K.","family":"Liaw","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xie","family":"Xie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1272","reference":[{"key":"ref1","series-title":"Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"56","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0038-1633097","article-title":"Incidence of canine appendicular musculoskeletal disorders in 16 veterinary teaching hospitals from 1980 to 1989","volume":"7","author":"Johnson","year":"1994"},{"key":"ref2","series-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1604","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.2005.227.1604","article-title":"Estimate of the annual economic impact of treatment of cranial cruciate ligament injury in dogs in the United States","volume":"227","author":"Wilke","year":"2005"},{"key":"ref3","series-title":"Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"167","DOI":"10.3415\/VCOT-10-06-0084","article-title":"A review of extra-articular prosthetic stabilization of the cranial cruciate ligament\u2013deficient stifle","volume":"24","author":"Tonks","year":"2011"},{"key":"ref4","series-title":"Vet Surg","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"315","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1532-950X.2010.00658.x","article-title":"Clinical comparison of a novel extracapsular stabilization procedure and tibial plateau leveling osteotomy for treatment of cranial cruciate ligament deficiency in dogs","volume":"39","author":"Cook","year":"2010"},{"key":"ref5","series-title":"Vet Surg","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"111","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1532-950X.2007.00361.x","article-title":"Tibial osteotomies for cranial cruciate ligament insufficiency in dogs","volume":"37","author":"Kim","year":"2008"},{"key":"ref6","series-title":"Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"159","DOI":"10.1160\/VCOT-06-06-0054","article-title":"Evaluation of triple tibial osteotomy.
