A technique for arthroscopy of the antebrachiocarpal joint in dogs is described. Both antebrachiocarpal joints in 9 dog cadavers were examined arthroscopically and grossly to refine the technique and determine structures that could be seen. Two arthroscope portals were evaluated in each joint. The antebrachiocarpal synovium, ulnar carpal bone, distal portion of the ulna, medial and lateral collateral ligaments, accessory carpal bone, intercarpal ligament of the radial and ulnar carpal bone, distal portion of the radius, radial carpal bone, palmar process of the radial carpal bone, ligaments of the accessory carpal bone, palmar radiocarpal ligament, and palmar ulnocarpal ligament were visible and accessible to instruments. Arthroscopy was also performed in 5 client-owned dogs, allowing diagnosis of hyperextension injuries (n = 2), septic arthritis (2), and immune-mediated arthropathy (1). Arthroscopy of the antebrachiocarpal joint was found to be a useful adjunct to standard diagnostic modalities.
本文描述了一种犬前臂腕关节的关节镜检查技术。对9只犬尸体的双侧前臂腕关节进行了关节镜检查和大体检查,以完善该技术并确定可观察到的结构。每个关节评估了两个关节镜入口。可见并可通过器械触及前臂腕关节滑膜、尺腕骨、尺骨远端、内外侧副韧带、副腕骨、桡尺腕骨间韧带、桡骨远端、桡腕骨、桡腕骨掌突、副腕骨韧带、掌侧桡腕韧带和掌侧尺腕韧带。还对5只客户拥有的犬进行了关节镜检查,诊断出伸展过度损伤(2例)、化脓性关节炎(2例)和免疫介导性关节病(1例)。发现前臂腕关节镜检查是标准诊断方法的有用辅助手段。
