“…We found 471 records in database searching from 2011 to June 2022 (depending on the first publication for each technique). After duplicate removal (n = 117) and exclusion of book sections, ex vivo studies, or thesis (n = 178), we screened 176 records, from which we reviewed 68 full-text documents, and finally included 29 papers [ 3 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 15 , 16 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 ]. Later, we searched records from the reference lists of initially included studies, founding one paper that fulfilled inclusion criteria [ 14 ].…”

“…As previously noted, the choice of meniscal release probably influenced the incidence of postoperative meniscal injuries. Still, it is not possible to investigate this result statistically as only five studies chose this technique [ 12 , 23 , 29 , 41 , 45 ].…”

“…Nevertheless, all late meniscal tears were recorded in 16 studies where the meniscal release was not performed, except for 1 knee [ 41 ]. A possible reason for the relatively high number of secondary meniscal injuries after traditional TTA could be persistent craniocaudal stifle instability [ 55 ].…”

(1) Background: Several surgical techniques were described for the treatment of cranial cruciate ligament rupture in dogs. This report aims to critically review the available literature focused on preoperative planning, surgical procedure, follow-up, and complications of cranial cruciate ligament rupture treated by tibial tuberosity advancement techniques; (2) Methods: three bibliographic databases: PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus were used for a board search of TTAT (canine OR dog). Five GRADE recommendations according to Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation and Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklists were applied to the studies included. Data regarding preoperative planning (a measure of advancement), meniscal disease (meniscectomy, meniscal release, and late meniscal tears), and postoperative patellar tendon angle were recorded. Time frame, outcome, and complications were classified according to Cook’s guidelines; (3) Results: from 471 reports yielded, only 30 met the inclusion criteria. The common tangent method was the most commonly reported measurement technique for preoperative planning. The 40.21% of stifles presented meniscal tears at surgery, while 4.28% suffered late meniscal tears. In short-, mid-and long-term follow-ups examined showed a full/acceptable function was shown in >90% of cases. Among all new generation techniques, minor complications were reported in 33.5% of cases and major complications in 10.67%; (4) Conclusions: Compared to traditional TTA, new generation TTAT resulted effective in the treatment of cranial cruciate ligament failure, showing a lower rate of late meniscal injury but a higher rate of minor complications.

“…The original paper about TTA-rapid has described a 34% total complication rate based on the results of 50 cases (Samoy et al, 2015). A smaller study of 10 cases has reported a 40% total complication rate (Roydev and Goranov, 2021). Another study has reported a 42.6% total complication rate based on 17 cases (Arican et al, 2017).…”

“…Complications considered major are as follows: surgical site infection, late meniscal injury, implant failure, postoperative patellar luxation and various types of tibial fractures in the postoperative period. Less data are available on the complications of TTA-rapid (Samoy et al, 2015;Butterworth and Kydd, 2017;Arican et al, 2017;Dyall and Schmökel, 2017;Roydev and Goranov, 2021). To the best of our knowledge, only the original article (Petazzoni, 2010) and another publication reviewing our own first 16 cases (Ipolyi et al, 2015) report the complications of cTTA.…”

The objective of this retrospective study was to determine the complications of the first 30 tibial tuberosity advancement rapid (TTA-rapid) and 30 modified circular tibial tuberosity advancement (mcTTA) procedures performed by our team, and to compare the results with the findings reported in the literature. Our research was based on 30 procedures in each group. All dogs were client-owned. Data were collected only for the study of cases that had a minimum follow-up period of 3 months. Intraoperative (IO) and postoperative (PO) complications were assessed, with the latter divided into two subgroups: major and minor. Results obtained for the TTA-rapid group: IO complications 23.3% (7/30), major PO complications 13.3% (4/30), minor PO complications 16.7% (5/30). Results of the mcTTA group: IO complications 0% (0/30), major PO complications 3.3% (1/30), minor PO complications 20% (6/30). Comparing the complication rates, we found that there was a significant difference between the two groups in the occurrence of IO complications (P = 0.01054); however, there was no significant difference in the incidence of major (P = 0.3533) and minor (P > 0.9999) PO complications between groups. Our results are consistent with the findings reported in the literature and suggest that both techniques are efficient and carry a relatively low complication rate.
