A 6-year-old female neutered Border Collie presented with an inability to walk. The patient had undergone pelvic limb amputation over a year prior. Orthopedic examination revealed discomfort during hip manipulation, and radiographic examination revealed chronic hip luxation. Total hip replacement was performed using the InnoPlant system, which includes modular screw-in cementless pieces to improve implant stability. Cage rest was for the first four postoperative weeks. Subsequently, assistance was provided while standing until the patient could stand unassisted at 10 postoperative weeks. The clinical and radiological outcomes were excellent 3 months postoperatively. Since it is a new system, there are no data regarding the use of the components of the Innoplant system in dogs with a contralateral amputated pelvic limb. This is the first report describing the use of the Innoplant system for total hip replacement in a dog with a contralateral amputated pelvic limb. Based on the clinical outcomes of this case, the use of an Innoplant prosthesis can be an effective treatment option for dogs with contralateral amputated limbs.
一只6岁已绝育的边境牧羊犬出现无法行走的症状。该患者在一年多前接受了骨盆肢体截肢手术。骨科检查发现髋关节手法检查时有不适，影像学检查显示慢性髋关节脱位。使用InnoPlant系统进行了全髋关节置换，该系统包括模块化的拧入式非骨水泥部件，以提高植入物的稳定性。术后前四周需笼养休息。随后，在站立时提供辅助，直到术后10周患者能够独立站立。术后3个月临床和放射学结果均极佳。由于这是一个新系统，尚无关于InnoPlant系统组件在对侧骨盆肢体截肢犬中使用的数据。这是第一份描述InnoPlant系统用于对侧骨盆肢体截肢犬全髋关节置换的报告。基于该病例的临床结果，InnoPlant假体的使用对于对侧肢体截肢的犬可能是一种有效的治疗选择。
