  • Biceps Ulnaris Release Procedure (BURP)

    Surgical release of the biceps ulnaris tendon to alleviate chronic medial elbow pain caused by tendon impingement or fibrosis. Typically indicated in cases of medial compartment disease where soft tissue restriction limits range of motion and conservative management fails.

    • Path

  • Proximal Radius and Ulna Fractures

    Fractures near the elbow joint that compromise limb function and stability. Repair strategies include internal fixation to restore alignment and joint integrity.

    • Path

  • Diaphyseal Radius Fractures

    Mid-shaft fractures of the radius disrupt forelimb support and require precise internal fixation to restore function and prevent malunion.

  • 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.

  • Navicular Bursa

    A synovial structure located between the deep digital flexor tendon and the flexor surface of the navicular bone within the hoof capsule. Disorders of the navicular bursa, including bursitis, adhesions, and deep digital flexor tendon lesions, are important causes of...

  • 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.

    • Path

  • Medial Coronoid Fragments

    Fragmentation of the medial coronoid process of the ulna, a key component of elbow dysplasia. Causes pain and joint instability; arthroscopic fragment removal is commonly performed.

    • Path

  • Osteochondrosis Dissecans (OCD)

    A cartilage development disorder leading to flap formation and joint inflammation. Biologic adjuncts such as PRP complement surgical debridement by supporting cartilage repair and reducing postoperative inflammation.

    • Path

  • Sacroiliac Luxation and Fractures

    Separation of the ilium from the sacrum at the SI joint, usually due to trauma. Stabilization with screws or pins is often required to restore pelvic integrity and prevent gait abnormalities.

  • Technician Resources

    Developed for experienced and aspiring surgical technicians, this learning path provides essential training in patient prep, sterile field setup, equipment organization, and tower operation.

    • Path

  • Distal Radius Fracture

    Fracture of the distal radius near the carpus, which can impact elbow loading and forelimb mechanics. Treatment typically involves internal fixation for optimal recovery.

    • Path

  • Diaphyseal Tibia Fractures

    Breaks along the tibial shaft often result from trauma. Internal fixation techniques ensure proper alignment and promote rapid recovery.

    • Path

  • Stifle Osteochondrosis Dissecans (OCD)

    A developmental cartilage disorder affecting the femoral condyle, leading to flap formation and joint inflammation. Arthroscopic removal of the lesion is the standard treatment for restoring mobility.
