CANINE TOTAL HIP REPLACEMENT: STATE OF THE ART
Abstract
This thesis investigates the current state of canine total hip replacement (THR) by comparing three
different systems: the Biomedtrix BFX & CFX systems, the Zurich system, and the Helica System.
The focus of the thesis is on the Biomedtrix systems, its advantages and disadvantages in
comparison to the other two systems, and on the BFX cementless system in the cases studied. The
study begins with a comprehensive review of the current state of THR in canine, including the
history, techniques, materials, and outcomes of the surgery.
