A small area of the bone remains cartilaginous at the subchondral level (located under the joint cartilage). This abnormal cartilage is predisposed to trauma, and it can fissure and become detached, resulting in osteochondritis dissecans.<\/p>\n<p>This problem is often encountered among large breed puppies and is considered rare among small breed dogs and among cats.<\/p>\n<p>The cause has not yet been well established; however, this disease is considered multifactorial, implicating genetic and environmental factors.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">The affected joints are the shoulder, the elbow, the knee, and the tarsus (heel)<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">The clinical signs are pain and joint swelling, lameness, and muscular atrophy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If your young pet has these clinical signs, X-rays will be recommended in order to evaluate the bone at the joint level and to check for the presence of osteoarthritis.<\/p>\n<p>Open surgery or arthroscopy is recommended for this condition.
