Two Holstein Friesian calves were referred to the Animal Medical Center of Chonbuk National University with severe lameness on the hind limb(s), flexed stifle joint and an inability to walk since birth. Based on the clinical history, clinical findings and radiography of the stifle joint, the cases were diagnosed as grade III lateral patellar luxation (LPL). Trochleoplasty along with medial retinacular reinforcement and lateral release were performed in both calves. The calves recovered 3 to 4 weeks after surgery. Trochleoplasty along with medial retinacular reinforcement and lateral release can be an effective technique for the treatment of LPL in calves.
两头荷斯坦弗里生犊牛因后肢严重跛行、膝关节屈曲且自出生起无法行走，被转诊至全北国立大学动物医学中心。根据临床病史、临床表现及膝关节X线检查，这些病例被诊断为III级外侧髌骨脱位（LPL）。对两头犊牛均实施了滑车成形术，并加强内侧支持带和松解外侧支持带。犊牛术后3至4周康复。滑车成形术联合内侧支持带加强和外侧松解术可能是治疗犊牛LPL的有效技术。
