Surgical reports as well as the preoperative, postoperative, and follow-up radiographs were reviewed. The anatomical lateral distal femoral angle (aLDFA) was determined. Long-term clinical outcome was assessed by telephone interview with the owner.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results: A lateral closing wedge DFO was performed on 66 limbs. The mean pre- and postoperative aLDFA was 107.6\u00b0 \u00b1 5.8\u00b0 and 94.1\u00b0 \u00b1 4.2\u00b0, respectively. Cranial cruciate ligament disease was identified in 28\/66 affected limbs. Tibial angular deformity, torsional deformity, or both was identified in nine of the 66 limbs. Ostectomy healing was confirmed radiographically in 51\/66 limbs. The mean time to union was 73 \u00b1 37 days. All patellae were in the normal position and stable. Complications included infection (2\/51), fixation failure (1\/51), delayed healing (2\/51), and persistent lameness (1\/51).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Clinical significance: In this cohort of cases, DFO was a highly successful and repeatable component of surgical treatment for dogs with medial patellar luxation associated with femoral varus. This study also provides more evidence of the high rate of concurrent cranial cruciate ligament disease in cases of medial patellar luxation complicated by fe-moral varus, and supports an association between stifle instability and medial patellar luxation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3415\/vcot-16-07-0103","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,12,9]],"date-time":"2016-12-09T07:36:42Z","timestamp":1481269002000},"page":"20-27","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":58,"title":["Distal femoral lateral closing wedge osteotomy as a component of comprehensive treatment of medial patellar luxation and distal femoral varus in dogs"],"prefix":"10.3415","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"Barry","family":"Brower","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ann","family":"Peruski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Antonio","family":"Pozzi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jonathan","family":"Dyce","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kenneth","family":"Johnson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Randy","family":"Boudrieau","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Kowaleski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-16-07-0103-1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"633","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.1993.202.04.633","volume":"202","author":"Ruble","year":"1993","journal-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-16-07-0103-2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1748-5827.2006.00004.x"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-16-07-0103-3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"716","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.1994.205.05.716","volume":"205","author":"Hayes","year":"1994","journal-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-16-07-0103-4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1532-950X.2005.00115.x"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-16-07-0103-5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1532-950X.1992.tb00003.x"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-16-07-0103-6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1532-950X.2006.00189.x"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-16-07-0103-7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"32","DOI":"10.3415\/VCOT-08-01-0009","volume":"22","author":"Bound","year":"2009","journal-title":"Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol"},{"key":"10.3415\/VCOT-16-07-0103-8","unstructured":"Piermattei DL, Flo GL, Decamp CE.
