“…The body will compensate by increasing or decreasing the ROM in the cervicothoracic and thoracolumbar vertebral regions (Eward et al, 2003;Hogy et al, 2013;Marsh et al, 2010;Miqueleto et al, 2013). Our study found in the trotting gait of dogs affected with bilateral PL that bilateral PL was the cause of the increase in the ROM of the carpal joint, while unilateral PL was found to be the cause of a decrease in the ROM of the shoulder, in comparison with unaffected dogs.…”

“…According to a previous study, kinematic analysis in healthy and hip-dysplastic German Shepherd dogs (Miqueleto et al, 2013) showed more extension of the carpal joint, which could be associated with the additional weight bearing in the forelimb. Similar to this study, it was found that the hind limb of the PL dogs caused the increase in the MEA and the ROM of the carpal joint.…”

“…Video recording and analysis of range of motion: Each of the dogs was tagged with a square marker on either side (right and left) of the body using a double-side adhesive tape; the hair was clipped before sticking the marker. A total of 10 markers were placed on the skin on each side of the body over the point of the cranial angle of the scapula, the acromium of the shoulder joint, the lateral epicondyle of the humerus, the styloid ulnar process, the distal lateral aspect of the fifth metacarpal bone, the cranial border of the dorsal point of the iliac crest, the eminence of the greater trochanter of the femur, the stifle joint between the lateral epicondyle of the femur and the fibular head, the lateral malleolus and the distal lateral digit aspect of the fifth metatarsus (Miqueleto et al, 2013). These markers were placed by the same investigator.…”

“…Joint motion plays an important role in maintaining the functions of the joints as many tissues are affected in the ROM, for example articular cartilage, joint capsule, tendon, ligament, bone and muscle. Various conditions have been reported as limiting the ROM: Septic arthritis, osteoarthritis, joint luxation, bone and articular fracture, ligament/tendon rupture and muscle contraction (Marsh et al, 2010;Miqueleto et al, 2013). Treatments of the disorders of those tissues are aimed at bringing about the re-function of the joints, thus returning the ROM to normal as a result of which the dog can walk, trot, canter, or gallop as normal.…”

The study compared the Ranges of Motion (ROM) of forelimb and hind limb, and the cycle speeds of healthy and Patellar Luxation (PL) dogs in walking and trotting. 21 dogs were divided into three groups: The 5 normal dogs, 6 unilateral PL (PL-1) dogs and 10 bilateral PL (PL-2) dogs. All dogs with PL did not present lameness. The dogs were walking and trotting on a treadmill for the video record. The Kinovea program was employed to evaluate the cycle speed, Maximum Extension Angle (MEA), Maximum Flexion Angle (MFA) and ROM of the shoulder, elbow, carpal, hip, stifle and tarsal joints. The results showed that both the limb sides of the dogs in all the groups in both walking and trotting motions had no significant difference (p>0.05). It was found that the ROM of the shoulder, carpal, hip and tarsal joints in PL dogs had significant difference (p<0.05) compared to the normal dog. In conclusion, the unilateral PL limb dogs showed no effect on the opposite limb, the unilateral and the bilateral PL dogs was an effect on the locomotion of the forelimb and the hind limb compared with the normal dogs.

“…The stifle joint angle is also different between dogs and humans in both, standing position and the stance phase of walking. The stifle joint has the maximum angle between 144° and 165° during the stance phase of walking for normal dogs, depending on breed (Hottinger et al., ; Griffon, ; Ragetly et al., , ; Agostinho et al., ; Miqueleto et al., ), while the knee joint angle is between 167° and 169° at the initial contact or early stance phase in humans (Nagano et al., ; Gaudreault et al., ; Robbins et al., ). This angle is measured in sagittal plane, based on the mechanical axes of the femur and tibia.…”

The aim of the study was to compare the anterior bow of the femur between dogs and humans in terms of the possible impact on the stifle joint. The femoral radiographs obtained retrospectively were used to determine the angles and positions of the anterior bow in both dogs (n = 135) and humans (n = 57). Descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation analysis were used for the statistical analyses of the variables. The mean anterior bow angle (ABA) was 18.3 ± 2.02° and 4.88 ± 1.24° in dogs and humans, respectively. The bow position was at the distal shaft in dogs (64.9 ± 2.04%) and almost at the mid-shaft of the bone (46.5 ± 5.52%) in humans. The ABA was related to the bow position in both humans and dogs. Additionally, the angle correlated with age in humans, while it was correlated with weight and breed in dogs. In conclusion, it is suggested that the anterior bow should be used as a landmark on the femoral axis for the biomechanical research of stifle joint, and dog stifle could be used as a suitable model for human knee in experimental studies for clinicians, while making sure that ethical principles are fully respected.
