Dec 07 - 08, 2021 | TPLO Course | Boston, USA |
Since the introduction of Tibial Plateau-Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO), no other procedure has impacted the veterinary orthopedic field as significantly as TPLO. Barclay Slocum’s TPLO redefined the expectations for standard of care in cruciate repair, giving surgeons the capacity to return patients to fully active life.
The TPLO surgical technique is an advanced orthopedic procedure. Success requires not only proper planning and execution of the TPLO procedure but also competence in evaluation of the entire hind limb, joint inspection and soft tissue reconstruction.
The TPLO Course is available as both dry and wet lab courses. Both courses contain lectures on background, planning, surgical technique, clinical experience and complications. The wet lab version of the course includes surgical planning where each attendee performs a TPLO on a cadaver and participates in a lab review discussion.
KYON TPLO Training is appropriate for veterinarians with basic orthopedic experience who are knowledgeable in fracture plating, corrective osteotomies or TPLO techniques.
Your OR and hospital should be suitable for orthopedic surgery.
Some surgeons and clinics will have more preparation to do than others. We are happy to discuss your specific circumstances and chart a path.
This practical TPLO course aims to help you improve their understanding of all critical aspects of TPLO and equip them with the necessary skill to achieve desired results consistently.
