摘要：

Objective To describe the clinical findings of dogs that sustained patellar fractures after tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO). Study Design Retrospective case series. Animals Dogs with patellar fractures that occurred after TPLO surgery (n = 6). Methods Medical records (November 1, 2008October 31, 2010) were reviewed to identify dogs with patellar fracture occurring after TPLO. Results Six of 305 (2%) dogs had a patellar fracture after TPLO; 5 dogs were clinically lame when the fracture was diagnosed and all had radiographic evidence of patellar tendon thickening. All dogs were treated nonsurgically. In 2 dogs where follow-up radiographs were available there was no evidence of fracture union. No dog had a persistent lameness. Conclusion Fracture of the patella is an uncommon complication of TPLO surgery. Nonsurgical management can provide a satisfactory functional outcome.
