  • Title: Teres minor myopathy as a cause of lameness in a dog.
    Author: Bruce WJ, Spence S, Miller A.
    Journal: J Small Anim Pract; 1997 Feb; 38(2):74-7. PubMed ID: 9065886.
    Abstract:
    A case of a teres minor myopathy causing chronic lameness in a five-year-old working labrador retriever is described. Ultrasonography was used to assist in detection of the condition and a definitive diagnosis was made by histological examination after muscle excision. Medical treatment was ineffective, but excision of the affected muscle resulted in complete resolution of the lameness with no apparent adverse affects on joint function. The aetiology of this condition is unknown.
