Orthogonal radiographs of both forelimbs revealed a 7% length deficit of the left radius and elbow subluxation indices indicative of left elbow incongruity due to suspect premature closure of both radial physes. Radial lengthening consisted of a proximal ulnar ostectomy, a radial osteotomy, and transplantation of the ulnar autograft into the radial osteotomy site secured with an eight-hole dynamic compression plate. Orthopedic examinations were conducted at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 3 years postoperatively.

Radiographic examination at 4 weeks showed persistent radial lengthening of 1 cm, and a decreased humeroradial index (HRI), humeroulnar index (HUI), and radioulnar index (RUI) compared with preoperative values. At the 3 year examination, the HRI and HUI had increased indicating progression of elbow incongruity.

Preoperative patient demographic and clinical data, and postoperative outcome data were collected with a minimum 28-day follow-up period. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to model the odds of a negative outcome.Results: Cohort WE had a higher preoperative proportion of nonambulatory dogs (p = .0115) but there were no significant differences between the nonambulatory (p = .3762) and deep-pain negative subgroups (p = .6199).

Magnetic resonance imaging revealed internal obstructive hypertensive hydrocephalus. The dog was managed via ventriculoperitoneal shunting from the left lateral ventricle and made an excellent recovery. The dog acutely deteriorated 18 months after initial discharge and follow-up magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the ventricular shunt remained in situ with normal-sized lateral ventricles but revealed a cystlike lesion within the fourth ventricle, presumed to be a fourth ventricle arachnoid diverticulum. The diverticulum was causing mass effect and resultant compression of adjacent neuroparenchyma. A second ventriculoperitoneal shunt was subsequently placed into the fourth ventricle via the caudal cranial fossa and cerebellum. This was attached to a three-way connector, to which the existing shunt (within the left lateral ventricle) was also attached, and then secured to the existing medium-pressure valve.Results: Postoperatively, the dog immediately developed mild vestibular-cerebellar ataxia, with a marked improvement after 3 months. There were no shunt-associated complications.
