          Abstract

          Artroscopia diagnóstica ou terapêutica foi realizada em 51 articulações fêmoro-tíbio-patelar (FTP) de cão. Os animais foram submetidos à anestesia geral e empregou-se solução Ringer lactado para distensão articular após a coleta do líquido sinovial. Endoscopicamente, a FTP foi dividida em cinco compartimentos: o recesso suprapatelar, articulação fêmoropatelar, compartimento medial, área intercondilar e compartimento lateral. Ruptura de ligamento cruzado cranial foi a mais freqüente patologia observada (46 casos) que em três casos estava associada a prolapso de menisco, em três casos observou-se sinovite e em dois osteocondrose dissecante do côndilo lateral. Dificuldades de introdução do artroscópio, de visibilização das estruturas e infiltração excessiva do tecido subcutâneo foram complicações observadas. Verificou-se, ainda, um caso de necrose tecidual grave. Nos casos crônicos, a observação das estruturas foi dificultada pela presença dos elementos celulares. A ampliação das imagens possibilitou o diagnóstico de lesões ainda em fase incipiente e daquelas não conclusivas ao exame radiográfico.

          Diagnostic or therapeutic arthroscopy of stifle joint (SJ) was performed in 51 dogs. Animals were submitted to general anesthesia and ringer lactate solution was injected for articular distention after synovial fluid punction. SJ was divided in five main areas according to endoscopies: suprapatellar pouch, femuropatellar joint, medial compartment, intercondilar notch and lateral compartment. Cranial cruciate ligament rupture was most frequent (46 cases) detected pathology. In three cases it was related to medial meniscus prolapse. Synovitis was observed in three cases and dissecant osteocondrosis of the lateral femure condyle in two animals. Difficulties for arthroscope introduction, visualization of the structures and excessive infiltration of the subcutaneous tissue were complications observed. It was also noted a case of severe tissue necrosis. In chronic cases, the observation of the structures was affected by the presence of cellular elements. Images magnification allowed the diagnosis of the lesions that was not clear by either clinical or radiographic examinations.

          Elbow arthroscopy in clinically normal dogs.

          After a detailed anatomic study to determine puncture sites, 10 cadaver elbows from 5 dogs were examined arthroscopically to study the normal intraarticular anatomy, as viewed from the medial side. Subsequent dissection revealed absence of neurovascular injury and only minor iatrogenic damage to the cartilage. The technique was clinically applied and evaluated in 13 dogs (26 joints). The dogs recovered without complications. The technique proved to be safe and reliable for direct examination of nearly the entire joint. More specifically, it allowed systematic inspection of the medial and lateral humeral condyles, the medial and lateral coronoid processes, the caudal and middle parts of the head of the radius, the olecranon (including the anconeal process), and the medial collateral ligament.
