Comparison of axial tibial-metatarsal alignment in dogs of varying size with and without medial patellar luxation

ObjectivesTo compare tibial torsion angle (TTA) and proximal tibial metatarsal angle (PTMTA) between dogs weighing < 10 kg and dogs weighing ≥ 10 kg with and without medial patellar luxation (MPL) to assess whether transverse plane tibial-metatarsal malalignment is size dependent.Study designRetrospective computed tomographic analysis.Sample populationOne hundred and one limbs from 55 client-owned dogs.MethodsComputed tomographic (CT) scans of pelvic limbs that met inclusion criteria were catego
