| description | PICO question
In dogs with cranial cruciate ligament disease, is conservative non-surgical treatment as effective as surgical treatment with the lateral fabellotibial suture technique in reducing time to recovery?
Clinical bottom line
Category of research
Treatment.
Number and type of study designs reviewed
One retrospective study.
Strength of evidence
Zero.
Outcomes reported
There is no evidence that surgical treatment with the lateral fabellotibial suture (LFTS) reduces time to recovery compared to conservative treatment in dogs with cranial cruciate ligament disease.
Conclusion
In dogs with cranial cruciate ligament disease there is no statistical evidence to support recommendation of surgical treatment with the LFTS technique compared to conservative treatment in reducing time to recovery.
How to apply this evidence in practice
The application of evidence into practice should take into account multiple factors, not limited to: individual clinical expertise, patient’s circumstances and owners’ values, country, location or clinic where you work, the individual case in front of you, the availability of therapies and resources.
