An 8-day-old alpaca was presented for suspected meconium impaction and abnormal gait and posture. Physical examination revealed bilateral medial patellar luxation. In previous reports, medical treatment of patellar luxation in crias has been associated with a poor to grave prognosis; here we report a case of successful resolution.
