Question 1

Franklin, Vet Surg, 2017:
Effect(s) of oblique plane inclined osteotomies?
Radial torsion values vs radial rotation?

Answer 1

Franklin, Vet Surg, 2017:
Oblique planed inclined osteotomies improved limb alignment and resulted in osseous union and full or acceptable function
Radial rotation is often greater than radial torsion and the use of radial torsion values alone may result in under-correction of radial rotation

Question 2

Cooley, Vet Surg, 2018:
What % of the dogs with uniapical and biapical deformities were chondrodystrophic?
Overall limb rotation in normal dogs?

Answer 2

Cooley, Vet Surg, 2018:
0% of the uniapical dogs and 90% of the biapical dogs were chondrodystrophic
Overall limb rotation in normal dogs is 35 degrees
