Muscle contracture in the dog is an uncommon condition that may occur when most or all of the traumatized muscle is replaced by fibrous tissue. Sartorius muscle contracture causes clinical findings similar to gracilis muscle contracture and to semitendinosus myopathy and differential diagnosis is not easily achieved. We report our experience with a case of sartorious muscle contracture in a 5-year-old male German Shepherd dog.

Abstract
Muscle contracture in the dog is an uncommon condition that may occur when most or all of the traumatized muscle is replaced by fibrous tissue. Sartorius muscle contracture causes clinical findings similar to gracilis muscle contracture and to semitendinosus myopathy and differential diagnosis is not easily achieved. We report our experience with a case of sartorious muscle contracture in a 5-year-old male German Shepherd dog.File in questo prodotto:
