Canine Hip Dysplasia (CHD) is considered to be one of the most common orthopaedic diseases and it consists of coxofemoral joint incongruence leading to femoral head subluxation and osteoarthritic changes. The affected dogs tend to present progressive pain and mobility issues. The widely used CHD managing strategies, among others, include pelvic osteotomy techniques. In recent years, great efforts have been made to improve the surgical procedure and reduce the rate of complications, which seems to be a possibility due to the introduction of constructional changes in modern TPO/DPO plates.
