is normally used believe that cats have 9 lives. So says the legend feline and we like to believe. For Missy, but once the end of its 'stock' lives, there was the miraculous power of the occasion, for the first time ever, receive a tenth, so far unknown to all. Cats, from now on will have another chance of resurrection and the merits of the British veterinary surgeons for Missy, a wonderful way of crawling to eight years, have taken a miracle without precedent.
To better understand what has happened in a few lines sum up the life of Missy. After being hit by a car and have agonized for two days, sheltered by a bush, this lady cat was only an opportunity, and not very profitable; euthanasia.
With two mangled legs was found by his owner, Mrs. Louise Morris of Petworth. The ride to the vet was a race against time, as Missy looked really have no hope of survival. The amputation of the limb most affected was not desirable because the other paw Missy had fractures in eight points. Anywhere else, this cat is the only way would be open suppression, but providential intervention / experiment by a British physician, Dr. Noel Fitzpatrick, who performed the surgery in his clinic in Guildford, she has developed for an artificial knee, which had never been done before. Here, with all the risks of such a situation, the miracle happens. So, for the numerous broken bones in the cat veterinarians have agreed the inclusion in special scaffold called Spider (Secured Pin intramedullary Dorals Epoxy Resin Frame). For the other paw, however, doctors have opted for total knee replacement, using a stainless steel system designed and constructed on the basis of radiological and ultrasound images of the cat. The device consists of two parts connected together by a mechanism that mimics the feline knee ligaments in order to avoid the risk of further dislocations.
"The hardest thing has been miniaturized plants and calibrate the possibility of movement so that the cat could walk, run and jump, which cats often do. "
Tell your doctor.
" A human patient with a robotic knee probably walk or run, but there be expected to jump like a cat. "
he added. The operation to remove the damaged knee and replace it with the bionic limb lasted two and a half hours and it would seem that everything has gone in the best way. Now Missy is fine and has returned home to convalesce. This miracle has offered a real chance to live a cat Missy 'vita'non tenth in the program. We hope this step forward in medicine Veterinary will provide an opportunity to other animals to return to a normal life despite a severe injury and is increasingly removed the possibility of discontinuing the animal has chosen not true and that he sees us as the only decision-making powers of its life.
Congratulations to Missy and her owner Louise, and a sincere pat on the back to Mr. Fitzpatrick and his team for their work.
