Q

Will removing ununited anconeal process affect bone growth?

A

No because the that joint contributes a very small % of growth and it should be closed at 5 months anyway when dog is still growing

26
Q

When does distal ulna growth plate close in dogs

A

8-12 months

27
Q

When does proximal radius growth plate close in cats

A

5-8 months

28

When does distal radius growth plate close in cats

A

14-20 months

29
Q

When does distal ulna growth plate close in cats

A

14-20 months

30
Q

Which humeral growth plate contributes 80% growth

A

Proximal growth plate

31
Q

Which growth plate contributes 20% growth

A

Distal growth plate

32
Q

When does proximal humerus growth plate close in dogs

A

10-13 months

33
Q

When does humeral condyle growth plate close in dogs

A

5-8 months

34
Q

When does proximal humerus growth plate close in cats

A

18-24 months

35
Q

When does humeral condyle growth plate in cats close

A

3-4 months

36
Q

What is incomplete ossification of humeral condyle

A

Condyle fails to fuse and the lateral and medial sides are separated by a fibrous band, prone to fracture later in life

37
Q

what is indicated by the black arrows

A

Incomplete ossification of humeral condyle

38
Q

What is indicated by the white arrow

A

incomplete ossification of humeral condyle

39
Q

Identify 1-5

A
  1. Oblique ligament
  2. Biceps brachii
  3. Brachialis
  4. Lateral collateral ligament
  5. Annular ligament
40
Q

What is the function of the lateral and medial collateral ligaments of the elbow

A

Main stabilizers of elbow

41
Q

What ligament keeps the radial head sitting in the elbow joint

A

Annular ligament

42
Q

What would happen if you tore both your medial and lateral collateral ligaments

A

Luxate elbow

43
Q

identify 1-2

A
  1. Annular ligament
  2. Lateral collateral ligament and caudal and cranial crura
44
Q

The following X-ray were taken, what’s wrong

A

Elbow luxated

45
Q

what happened here

A

Ulna broke, causing radial head to luxate, tearing annular ligament

46
Q

What are the elbow flexors

A

Biceps brachii and brachialis

47
Q

What are elbow extensors

A

Tensor fasciae anterbrachium, long head of triceps, medial head of triceps, accessory head of triceps, lateral head of triceps, and anconeus

48
Q

identify 1-5

The following X-ray was taken what is wrong

A

Fracture to olecranon process, after break the triceps will pull olecranon out of place

Carpal flexors (superficial digital flexor, deep digital flexor, flexor carpi ulnaris, flexor carpi radialis)

53
Q

What does radial nerve innervate in antebrachium

A

Carpal extensors (ulnaris lateralis, lateral digital extensor, common digital extensor, extensor carpi radialis)

54
Q

What muscle is hammer targeting? What respond should this elicit? What nerve function does it test

A

Muscle: triceps
Response: elbow extension
Nerve: radial

55
Q

what muscle is the hammer targeting? What response should this elicit? What nerve is this testing?

A

Muscle: biceps
Response: elbow flexion
Nerve: musculocutaneous

56
Q

What muscle is the hammer targeting? What response should this elicit? What nerve is this testing?

A

muscle: extensor carpi radialis
Response: carpal extension
Nerve: radial

57
Q

Ex case: Bubba, 2yr, NM Siamese got out of house came home non-weight bearing but has sensation in foot. What would be your next steps to determine what is wrong

A

Test reflexes with hammer: start with Extensor carpi radialis (because loss extension), then test triceps and then biceps

58
Q

Ex case Bubba cont: Extensor Carpi radialis- no response, triceps, no response, biceps- reflex present. What nerve is damaged?

A

Radial

59
Q

identify 1-2

A
  1. Cephalic vein
