-
Elbow Dysplasia
A developmental condition involving abnormal growth of the elbow joint components, leading to pain, lameness, and progressive osteoarthritis. Common in large-breed dogs and often requires surgical intervention.
-
Bone Defects
Critical-size or traumatic bone defects pose a challenge to natural healing. Biologic therapies, such as PRP and bone graft substitutes, promote osteogenesis and accelerate repair, leading to improved structural integrity.

Application of the OrthoLine™ MPL Plate
Antonio Pozzi, DVM, DACVS-SA (Zurich, Switzerland), demonstrates the application of the OrthoLine™ MPL plate and provides guidance on when to incorporate InternalBrace™ repair for added stability.

General Anesthesia Protocols and Procedures for Equine Arthroscopy
Aimee Colbath, VMD, PhD, DACVS-LA (Ithaca, NY), demonstrates general anesthesia protocols and procedures for equine arthroscopy using the NanoNeedle™ scope.
-
Surgical Approach to the Proximal Femur
Sean Murphy, DVM, DACVS-SA (Boise, ID), demonstrates the surgical approach to the proximal femur for fracture repair and reviews key anatomic structures.
-
Shoulder Arthroscopy: Joint Examination
Ian G. Holsworth, BVSc, DACVS-SA (Ventura, CA), demonstrates shoulder arthroscopy, highlighting key structures and sharing visualization tips.
-
The Use of Orthobiologics in Veterinary Medicine
Nina R. Kieves, DVM, DACVS-SA, DACVSMR (Naples, FL), presents core concepts in veterinary biologics, including therapy types, clinical applications, and practical techniques for joint delivery. A concluding case review illustrates how biologics can support orthopedic decision-making and patient outcomes.
-
Proximal Femur Fractures
Fracture involving the femoral head or neck, often secondary to trauma. Repair options include internal fixation or femoral head and neck excision in severe cases.
-
Canine Unicompartmental Elbow (CUE) Arthroplasty System
James Cook, DVM, DACVS, DACVSMR (Columbia, MO), demonstrates the Canine Unicompartmental Elbow (CUE) arthroplasty system, a treatment option for medial compartment disease (MCD), using a canine cadaveric limb.
-
Instrumentation Overview for QuickFix™ Cannulated Screw System and Low-Profile Screw System
Sarah Malek, DVM, PhD, DACVS-SA (West Lafayette, IN), provides an overview of the instrumentation used for unicondylar fractures in dogs and cats.
-
-
Medial Condylar Fracture Decision-Making
Jonathan Suber, DVM, DACVS-SA (Columbia, SC), provides an overview of medial condylar fractures and the decision-making options for their repair.

Postoperative Assessment
Sarah Malek, DVM, PhD, DACVS-SA (West Lafayette, IN), describes the four A’s (apposition, alignment, apparatus, and activity), which are key components in the postoperative assessment and healing evaluation of a bone fracture.
-
Stifle
A large, complex joint composed of the femoropatellar and femorotibial articulations that plays a critical role in weight-bearing, propulsion, and athletic performance. The stifle is commonly affected by osteochondrosis, meniscal injury, ligament pathology, subchondral bone disease, and osteoarthritis.
