Abstract
To diagnose hip dysplasia, you can use a test system, the essence of which is to create a subhabitation in the hip joint of the dog, laid on the side, while there is a click in the joint, which means that the test is positive, while the pressure on the knee joint of the hip joint does not happen. The most common method of diagnosing dysplasia worldwide is X-ray, in which the age of the dogs studied should be more than a year, and large and giant breeds are studied in the range of one to one and a half years, with the animal laid on the back so that the X-ray image shows the pelvis with the wings of the iliac bone and femurs, including the knee joints, therefore, it is also necessary to use sedation, which allows you to comply with all the requirements for styling. The resulting X-rays are assessed according to the main Xray characteristics of the hip joint, taking measurements on six parameters presented in the text of this article, and determining the type of dysplasia. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging can reveal the instability of the pathology in the hip joint and improve understanding of the disease process.
Highlights
Hip dysplasia is a hereditary malformation of the hip joint, which is expressed in an abnormal structure of the femoral head, the acetabular cavity, or both [16; 6]
The coincidence of the articular surfaces of the hip joint is ensured by the periarticular muscles, the joint capsule, and the round ligament of the femoral head, as well as by the vacuum effect created by the viscoelastic synovial fluid under conditions of congruence of the articular surfaces [10; 16]
Hip dysplasia in dogs was first detected in the U.S 60 years ago, the disease has been known in humans for a long time
Summary
Hip dysplasia is a hereditary malformation of the hip joint, which is expressed in an abnormal structure of the femoral head, the acetabular cavity, or both [16; 6]. Hip dysplasia in dogs was first detected in the U.S 60 years ago, the disease has been known in humans for a long time. It was soon described in Germany, but it was only after the Second World War that the study of hip dysplasia became more widespread, with American, English, and Scandinavian veterinarians making a special contribution to its study. Scientists in Sweden "proved that hip dysplasia is caused by hereditary factors inherent in certain breeds. The size of the dog itself is not always decisive, because the Irish wolfhounds hip dysplasia is quite rare, and in chow-chow - not often
