To describe the technique of combined center of rotation of angulation (CORA)-based leveling osteotomy (CBLO) with tibial tuberosity transposition (TTT) and to compare the load to failure between CBLO combined with TTT and CBLO or TTT alone.Ex vivo study.Twelve pairs of cadaveric pelvic limbs.Six pairs of cadaveric tibia were tested in each group (CBLO-TTT versus CBLO) and (CBLO-TTT versus TTT) with each limb randomly assigned to a treatment group. Construct stability was determined by applying a tensile force to each patellar tendon until failure occurred. Load at failure and mode of failure were recorded for each specimen.No difference in mean load to failure was identified between CBLO-TTT (897 N) and CBLO alone (943 N) (P = .81). There was also no difference in the mean load to failure between the CBLO-TTT (928 N) and TTT alone (1046 N) (P = .12).Performing a TTT in combination with a CBLO does not weaken the construct failure to load when compared with each procedure performed alone.A combined CBLO and TTT could be considered a viable option for concurrent management of a cranial cruciate ligament deficient stifle and medial patella luxation. |
