Coxo-femoral luxation is the most common luxation seen in dogs after road traffic accidents. There are multiple surgical techniques to repair the luxation. These range from a capsular reconstruction to a total hip replacement. This case report describes a total hip replacement to repair a failed toggle rod repair of a coxo-femoral luxation in a Greyhound pelvic limb amputee. The dog returned to normal activity as a household pet three months post-surgery and at the last follow-up consultation at 12 months post-surgery the dog was able to maintain an acceptable activity level as an amputee with no radiographic signs of complications.
髋关节脱位是犬类在道路交通事故后最常见的脱位类型。有多种手术技术可用于修复脱位。这些技术范围从关节囊重建到全髋关节置换。本病例报告描述了一只灵缇犬骨盆肢体截肢后，对失败的Toggle杆修复的髋关节脱位进行全髋关节置换的情况。术后三个月，这只狗作为家庭宠物恢复了正常活动，在术后12个月的最后一次随访咨询中，这只截肢犬能够保持可接受的活动水平，且无并发症的影像学迹象。
