Several juvenile diseases affect the canine forelimb. The most common are hypertrophic osteodystrophy, panosteitis, and retained cartilaginous core. Panosteitis and hypertrophic osteodystrophy tend to be self-limiting, with a good long-term prognosis, although severe cases can develop. These diseases may recur during growth. Severe cases of hypertrophic osteodystrophy can lead to angular limb deformities and may even be fatal. Retained cartilaginous cores can be benign with no evidence of clinical signs and be found incidentally on radiographs. However, if they disrupt the distal ulnar physis, angular limb deformities may persist requiring surgical intervention with a corrective osteotomy.
几种幼年疾病会影响犬前肢。最常见的是肥大性骨营养不良、全骨炎和软骨核滞留。全骨炎和肥大性骨营养不良往往具有自限性,预后良好,尽管严重病例可能会发展。这些疾病在生长过程中可能会复发。严重的肥大性骨营养不良可能导致肢畸形,甚至可能致命。软骨核滞留可能是良性的,没有临床症状的证据,并且在放射照片上偶然发现。然而,如果它们破坏了尺骨远侧骺板,肢畸形可能会持续存在,需要进行手术干预,采用矫正性截骨术。
