Abstract: Proximodistal positional changes of the patella can result in patellar luxation, pain or gait abnormalities which is commonly known in humans and suspected in dogs. To evaluate patellar height in radiographs, this study focused on measuring the TPPA (tibia plateau-patella angle) applied for the first time in cats.
