Abstract:

 The aim of this study was to evaluate the pre- and postoperative effects of screw stabilization on the inter-ilium distance, pelvic canal width, and hemipelvic canal ratios in cats that developed sacroiliac luxation as a result of trauma. The study included 18 cats of different breeds, sexes, ages, and weights that were diagnosed with sacroiliac luxation due to trauma and underwent surgical intervention at the Selcuk University Small Animal Hospital between 2023 and 2024. Clinical, hematological, and radiological examinations were performed. Following medical treatment and rehabilitation of the patients requiring stabilization before surgery, screw fixation was applied between the ilium and sacrum to stabilize the sacroiliac luxation. Among the 18 cases, 16.6 had bilateral sacroiliac luxation, 16.6 had sacroiliac luxation with an ilium fracture, 16.6 had sacroiliac luxation with an ischium fracture, 11.1 had sacroiliac luxation with a pubis fracture, 11.1 had sacroiliac luxation with both pubis and ischium fractures, 5.6 had sacroiliac luxation with an acetabulum fracture, 5.6 had sacroiliac luxation with both acetabulum and ilium fractures, 5.6 had sacroiliac luxation with both ilium and ischium fractures, 5.6 had sacroiliac luxation with pubis and ilium fractures accompanied by femoral head luxation, and 5.6 had sacroiliac luxation with pubis, ilium, ischium, and symphysis pelvis fractures. In 84 of the 18 cases diagnosed with sacroiliac luxation and treated surgically, the postoperative pelvic canal width ratio PCWR was found to be 1.1. No statistically significant difference was observed between the pre- and postoperative inter-ilium distance and pelvic canal ratios. However, a statistically significant difference was found in the hemipelvic canal ratio between the pre- and postoperative measurements p0.05. In this study, the comparison of pre- and postoperative results showed that the inter-ilium distance, pelvic canal, and hemipelvic canal ratios approached a normal anatomical structure postoperatively. In the choice of surgical technique, the dorsal approach to expose the ilium body facilitated the application.

 Bu çalışmanın amacı, travmalar sonucu sakroiliak çıkık gelişen kedilerde, vida stabilizasyonunun iki ilium arası mesafe, pelvik kanal genişliği ve hemipelvik kanal oranları üzerindeki etkilerini pre ve postoperatif olarak değerlendirmektir. Bu çalışmada 2023-2024 yılları arasında Selçuk Üniversitesi, Küçük Hayvan Hastanesine travma sonucu sakroiliak çıkık oluşan ve cerrahi girişim gerçekleştirilen farklı ırk, cinsiyet, yaş, ağırlıkta 18 kedi oluşturdu. Klinik, hemogram ve radyolojik muayeneleri yapıldı. Operasyon öncesi medikal tedaviye ihtiyaç duyan hastaların rehabilitasyonlarından sonra sakroiliak çıkıklarda ilium ile sakrum arasında vida stabilizasyonu yapıldı. 18 olgunun 16.6sında bilateral sakroiliak çıkık, 16.6sında sakroiliak çıkık beraberinde ilium kırığı, 16.6sında sakroiliak çıkık beraberinde ischii kırığı, 11.1inde sakroiliak çıkık beraberinde pubis kırığı, 11.1inde sakroiliak çıkık beraberinde pubis ve ischii kırığı, 5.6sında sakroiliak çıkık beraberinde acetabulum kırığı, 5.6sında sakroiliak çıkık beraberinde acetabulum ve ilium kırığı, 5.6sında sakroiliak çıkık beraberinde ilium ve ischii kırığı, 5.6sında sakroiliak çıkık beraberinde pubis ile ilium kırığı ve caput femoris luksazyonu, 5.6sında sakroiliak çıkık beraberinde pubis, ilium, ischii ve symphysis pelvina kırığı olduğu belirlendi. Sakroiliak çıkık teşhisi konulan ve cerrahi girişim uygulanan 18 olgunun 84ünde operasyon sonrası pelvik kanal genişliği oranı PKGO1.1 olarak bulunmuştur. Cerrahi girişim öncesi ve sonrası iki ilium arası oran arasında ve pelvik kanal oranı arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark gözlenmedi. Ancak, operasyon öncesi ve sonrası hemipelvik kanal oranı arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark olduğu belirlendi p0.05. Yapılan çalışmada pre ve postoperatif sonuçlarının karşılaştırılmasında, iki ilium arası, pelvik kanal ve hemipelvik kanal oranları post-op dönemde sağlıklı anatomik yapıya yaklaştığı gözlendi. Seçilecek cerrahi teknikte, olguların ilium bodya dorsal yaklaşım ile açığa çıkarılması uygulama kolaylığı sağlamıştır.
