Why would my pet need orthopedic surgery?
Animals with joint difficulties, torn ligaments, shattered bones, and even congenital disorders might benefit from orthopedic treatment. The cranial cruciate ligament (CCL), also known as the anterior cruciate ligament, is the subject of most orthopedic surgery (ACL).
When should I seek orthopedic care for my pet?
Pay attention to how your pet moves; any unexpected changes might indicate that they have an orthopedic problem.
Difficulty getting up, favoring one leg occasionally when walking, limping – swelling in the leg, stiffness, or decreased activity level are all common indications of an orthopedic disease. If you detect any of these issues, please bring your pet to our facility for a checkup.
How are typical orthopedic injuries treated?
Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO)
Tibial plateau leveling osteotomy is a procedure that alters the dynamic of the animal’s knee to mend a damaged ligament. By counteracting the force that caused the ligament to rip, the ligament becomes irrelevant to the knee’s stability. The tibia bone is sliced, rotated, and kept in place with metal plates during reconstructive surgery. This is a long-term remedy for the damage that is incredibly successful.
Tibial Tuberosity Advancement (TTA)
Tibial tuberosity advancement is a reconstructive procedure for repairing a damaged ligament by altering the ligament’s dynamic such that it is no longer required for support. Titanium implants are used in the procedure, which has a rapid recovery time.
Luxating Patella Surgery
A displaced knee cap is known as patellar luxation, and it is most typically observed in small breed dogs. When the patellar displaces from its usual position to the inside of the knee, it is known as patellar luxation. Non-weight-bearing lameness may occur in pets with this ailment, and you may hear a popping noise in their knee. There are a variety of treatment options available, ranging from a simple knee brace for Degree 1 luxations to realignment surgery for lower grade luxations. Bring your pet in so we can figure out the best course of action for the luxation.
Repairing Fractures
A fracture is a break in the bone or cartilage that can be treated with a variety of techniques ranging from basic exterior splinting to more complex interior plating. Trauma, a disease or tumor in the bone, or stress applied to a specific bone are the most common causes of fractures.
For all surgical operations, our vets adhere to the highest level of care requirements.
