Description

TPLO Masterclass: Beyond Straight Cuts

Endoscopic Spine Surgery: 

Description

This course is designed to provide experienced veterinary surgeons with enhanced knowledge and practical skills in performing TPLO surgeries combined with other complex pathologies, beyond “simple” cranial cruciate ligament rupture. The focus will be on addressing limb deformities of the proximal tibia including conditions such as varus, valgus, and steep tibial plateau angles as well as managing concurrent patella luxation. The program includes a series of lectures and practical laboratory sessions. Participants will explore advanced surgical techniques and theoretical knowledge crucial for handling intricate cases involving the proximal tibia and patella.

Learning Outcomes

This one-day masterclass is best suited for surgeons who already have a good foundation in TPLO procedures typically using 2.4 - 3.5 mm plates and are looking to refine their techniques and expand their treatment capabilities. Due to the intensive nature of this course, it is essential that the participants have substantial clinical experience with TPLO surgeries in both large and small breed dogs, as the format does not allow time for repetition of basic skills. Enrolment in this masterclass will provide an opportunity to deepen your surgical expertise in a focused, professional environment.
