Overview

Case report documents stifle stabilization after ACL rupture in a Maltese dog with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, suggesting treatment viability.

Key Points

  • Stifle stabilization effectively managed bilateral cranial cruciate ligament rupture in an Ehlers-Danlos syndrome affected dog.
  • The Maltese dog, only 11 months old, was treated post-diagnosis with a rare COL5A1 variant leading to EDS symptoms.
  • This case report highlights the significance of addressing connective tissue disorders in veterinary joint treatments.
  • Findings may inform future therapeutic options for similar ligament ruptures in dogs with genetic conditions.
