Hip dysplasia: a feline population study.
The study population consisted of cats presented to the University of Missouri-Columbia Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital from January 1, 1991 through December 31, 1995. Ventrodorsal radiographs including the pelvic region were evaluated for radiographic evidence of hip dysplasia. Each radiograph was evaluated independently by three board-certified veterinary radiologists and a consensus normal of dysplastic evaluation was determined. There were 684 cats from 12 breeds. The data derived from this study indicate the frequency of feline hip dysplasia in this population to be about 6.6% (45/684) and that the incidence appears to be breed dependent. Also, the radiographic appearance of hip dysplasia in cats is different than in dogs. A shallow acetabulum with remodeling and proliferation involving the cranio-dorsal acetabular margin were the most common radiographic signs. Minimal remodeling of the femoral neck was seen.

Multicentric lymphosarcoma in a dog with multiple-site skeletal involvement.
In this report the authors describe an unusual clinical presentation of lymphosarcoma (LSA) in a dog. A 9-year-old, neutered male, Golden Retriever was presented with a primary complaint of sudden onset of tetraparesis. Routine survey radiographs revealed multiple-site bony lesions and the histology revealed a diagnosis of LSA with diffuse skeletal and soft tissue involvement. The dog responded poorly to medical management and was euthanized on day two due to poor prognosis. Malignant LSA of the bone is a rare extranodal clinicopathologic entity and presents both a diagnostic and therapeutic hurdle. Reports of this kind are sparse and currently no optimal treatment for this entity has been determined.
