Evaluation of the Caudal Pouch of the Medial Femorotibial Joint
José M. García-López, VMD, DACVS, DACVSMR (Kennett Square, PA), demonstrates arthroscopic portal placement and examination of the caudal pouch of the medial femorotibial joint in an equine cadaver.
-
Fundamentals of Shoulder Arthroscopic Portals
Ian G. Holsworth, BVSc, DACVS-SA (Ventura, CA), reviews the fundamental steps for establishing shoulder arthroscopic portals.
-
Elbow Arthroscopy: Process and Joint Examination
Ian G. Holsworth, BVSc, DACVS-SA (Ventura, CA), demonstrates equipment setup, portal placement, and arthroscopic examination of the elbow using a canine cadaveric forelimb.
-
-
Coxofemoral Luxation Repair Using the TightRope® System: Reduced Implantation Technique
Chuck Walls, DVM, DACVS (Concord, CA), demonstrates the reduced implantation technique for a coxofemoral luxation repair using the TightRope® system.
-
Surgical Approach to the Shoulder for Joint Resurfacing
Jonathan Suber, DVM, DACVS-SA (Columbia, SC), demonstrates the surgical approach to the shoulder for cartilage resurfacing procedures and discusses important anatomical structures.
-
Craniodorsal Approach to the Canine Hip
Peter Lotsikas, DVM, DACVS-SA, DACVSMR (Frederick, MD), presents an overview and surgical demonstration of the craniodorsal approach to the canine hip.
-
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.
-
Absolute vs Relative Stability
W. Michael Karlin, DVM, DACVS-SA, DACVS-LA (North Grafton, MA), introduces the principles of absolute and relative stability. He defines how strain relates to the stages of bone healing, discusses the effects of each stability type on bone healing, and identifies...
-
-
Plate Contouring Guidelines
Susan Schaefer, DVM, DACVS (Madison, WI), demonstrates how to precontour plates.
-
Application of FiberTape® Cerclage
Sean Murphy, DVM, DACVS-SA (Boise, ID), demonstrates the application of FiberTape® cerclage in combination with plating for repairing a comminuted femur fracture.
-
Instrumentation and Surgical Approach for Acetabular Fracture Repair
Sean Murphy, DVM, DACVS-SA (Boise, ID), discusses the caudal approach to the hip for acetabular fracture repair, along with the required instrumentation.
-
Application of the OrthoLine™ Proximal Femur Fracture Plate
Sean Murphy, DVM, DACVS-SA (Boise, ID), demonstrates the application of the OrthoLine™ proximal femur fracture plate and shares tips and tricks for repair.
-
Tendon and Ligament Pathologies
Injuries to tendons and ligaments often require more than mechanical repair. PRP delivers growth factors that stimulate collagen synthesis and improve healing quality for durable function.
-
Wound Healing
Complex or slow-healing wounds benefit from biologic solutions, such as PRP, which enhance angiogenesis and tissue regeneration, thereby accelerating closure and reducing the risk of infection.
-
-
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.
-
OrthoLine™ Distal Radial Plate: Procedure Demonstration
Sean Murphy, DVM, DACVS-SA (Boise, ID), demonstrates the OrthoLine™ fracture management system on a canine tibia using a plastic bone model.
-
Positional Screw vs Lag Screw Demonstration
Mark Rochat, DVM, DACVS (West Lafayette, IN), uses a sawbone model to demonstrate the proper techniques for placing both lag screws and positional screws
-
Lateral Surgical Approach to the Femur
W. Mike Karlin, DVM, DACVS-SA, DACVS-LA (North Grafton, MA), demonstrates the lateral surgical approach to the canine femur.
