Abstract
The current manuscript had been achieved to be an essential resource for veterinary students and practitioners who deal with the anatomy of the Femoropatellar articulation in the dog. Twelve healthy adult dogs of both sexes were used in our study. Radiography and fine anatomical dissection were performed to document the detailed gross morphology of the various components of the dog Femoropatellar articulation, including its articular capsule, bony articular surfaces and ligaments. Results of the present study revealed that the dog Femoropatellar articulation was formed between the femoral trochlea and the articular (posterior) surface of the patella with its medial and lateral parapatellar fibrocartilages. The bony articular surfaces, various ligaments of the studied articulation were fully described.
