Sažetak

A 2-month-old, 7 kg, male Belgian shepherd Malinois was presented for evaluation of simple and complete syndactyly a nd metacarpal/tarsal pad agenesis in all four limbs, as well as deep digital flexor tendon contracture in the left thoracic and right pelvic limbs. A deep digital flexor tenotomy (digits 2 to 5) was initially performed at the level of the proximal and middle phalanges in the left thoracic limb. Pelvic limb surgery was not performed because the puppy showed less severe signology in this limb and to evaluate the consequences of the thoracic limb surgery. The patient responded partially, and was then treated with a subsequent bilateral tenotomy made more proximal to the previously described, at the level of the lateral lumbrical muscles in the left thoracic and right pelvic limbs. At 7-month post-operative examination, the patient had minimal lameness, especially regarding concurrent syndactyly and pad agenesis of all extremities that was not treated.
