A two-day advanced course for veterinarians who have completed introductory TPLO training and want to address more complex cases. Topics include TPLO in toy breed dogs and cats, concurrent patellar luxation, residual internal rotation and laxity, and modifications for challenging anatomy.
Lectures and practical sessions cover vPOP planning, isometric extracapsular sutures, the OrthoSta system, tibial tuberosity transposition for low-grade medial patellar luxation, and distal femoral osteotomy for higher-grade cases. Participants practice planning and surgical techniques using models and cadavers, with case discussion and radiographic review.
Faculty: Dr. Javier Avendaño and Dr. Brian Beale.
