In the above article published in Volume 36, Number 1 (DOI: 10.1055/s-0042-1756519), the following text was accidentally omitted from the Discussion: “…distal femoral varus (aLDFA), proximal femoral torsion (PAA), tibial torsion and the ratio of trochlear depth to patellar thickness were significantly decreased in cats with high-grade medial patellar luxation and the tibial tuberosity was more medialised in cats with high-grade medial patellar luxation when compared to normal cats. It was also found that…”

The complete first paragraph of the discussion should read as follows:

“In this study comparing the femoral and tibial conformation measured on CT in a population of normal cats and a population of cats with medial patellar luxation it was found that distal femoral varus (aLDFA), proximal femoral torsion (PAA), tibial torsion and the ratio of trochlear depth to patellar thickness were significantly decreased in cats with high-grade medial patellar luxation and the tibial tuberosity was more medialised in cats with high-grade medial patellar luxation when compared to normal cats. It was also found that overall and proximal femoral torsion (AA/PAA), tibial torsion and the ratio of trochlear depth to patellar thickness were significantly decreased in cats with low-grade medial patellar luxation, angle of inclination of the femoral neck was greater and the tibial tuberosity was more medialised in cats with low-grade medial patellar luxation when compared to normal cats, leading us to reject our null hypothesis.”

We apologize for this mistake.
