Abstract:
Although stifle disease is seen less frequently in cats than in dogs, accurate diagnosis and proper treatment are important to restoring joint function. The prognosis for return of function after all but the most severe stifle injuries in cats is good if proper surgical technique is used and adequate postoperative restrictions are enforced.
