Hip Dysplasia (DCF) is characterized by being polygenic, quantitative, multifactorial and extremely complex, which commonly results in irreversible degenerative changes. It is a common joint disease in dogs, especially in medium and large breeds. Clinical signs vary widely, from intermittent claudication to acute pain and voluntary paresis. The definitive diagnosis is made only through radiographic examination, following standards of execution and interpretation. Clinical treatment includes weight loss, controlled exercise, anti-inflammatory and analgesic medications, physiotherapy that allows muscle strengthening and analgesia of the animal. Surgical treatment depends on the evolution of the disease.
