Inclusion criteria were clinical and radiographic records plus clinical follow-up to at least six weeks. Data recorded included signalment, indication for surgery, postoperative care, and complications encountered. Radiographs were assessed for arthrodesis progression and complications. Outcome was assessed using an owner questionnaire.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Results: Eleven cats were treated for tarsal injuries and met the inclusion criteria. Mean age was 86 \u00b1 45 months, weight 4.50 \u00b1 0.92 kg. The only major short-term complication encountered was wound dehiscence requiring sedation and re-suturing. In the medium-term (23.3 months \u00b1 11.6 months) eight out of nine cats returned to normal activity and one cat showed intermittent lameness. Long-term (34.3 months \u00b117.5 months) radiographic evaluation was performed in seven out of nine cats; six manifested complete arthrodesis and one sustained plate breakage. Based on owner questionnaire, all nine cats returned to normal activity in the long-term, even the case with plate breakage.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Conclusion: Based on our results, PTA using a custom pre-contoured dorsal plate is a suitable salvage surgery for treatment of severe tarsal injuries in cats.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3415\/vcot-12-05-0063","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,24]],"date-time":"2013-04-24T11:35:11Z","timestamp":1366803311000},"page":"399-407","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Feline pantarsal arthrodesis using pre-contoured dorsal plates applied according to the principles of percutaneous plate arthrodesis"],"prefix":"10.3415","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"D.","family":"Sajik","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Farrell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"N.","family":"Fitzpatrick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"53","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0038-1632804","volume":"17","author":"Hunter","year":"2004","journal-title":"Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jfms.2009.07.009"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"147","DOI":"10.5326\/15473317-35-2-147","volume":"35","author":"Diamond","year":"1999","journal-title":"J Am Anim Hosp Assoc"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1071","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.1995.207.08.1071","volume":"207","author":"Beardsley","year":"1995","journal-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1748-5827.1994.tb03922.x"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"46","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0038-1632687","volume":"14","author":"Schm\u00f6kel","year":"2001","journal-title":"Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-7","first-page":"548","volume":"5","author":"Matthiesen","year":"1983","journal-title":"Compend Contin Educ Pract Vet"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-8","first-page":"165","volume":"48","author":"Theoret","year":"2007","journal-title":"Can Vet J"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1705","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.1993.203.12.1705","volume":"203","author":"DeCamp","year":"1993","journal-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/inpract.18.6.267"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/ajvr.2005.66.125"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1532-950X.1980.tb01656.x"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-12-05-0063-13","unstructured":"Miller A, Hulse D.
