Calcification of the Supraspinatus Tendon
Christopher Potanas, DVM, DACVS-SA (Naples, FL), explains how to differentiate supraspinatus tendinopathy from other shoulder conditions, such as biceps tendinopathy, and highlights key diagnostic considerations. This video is presented in memoriam to Dr. Christopher Potanas.
-
Arthroscopic-Assisted Coxofemoral Luxation Repair Using the TightRope® Fixation System
Sean Murphy, DVM, DACVS-SA (Boise, ID), demonstrates the arthroscopicassisted technique for a coxofemoral luxation repair using the TightRope® fixation system.
-
Shoulder Osteoarthritis (OA)
Progressive cartilage loss and joint remodeling in the shoulder, often secondary to instability or prior injury. Management focuses on pain control, mobility preservation, and surgical options for advanced disease.
-
Instrument Portal Establishment for Hip Arthroscopy
Ian G. Holsworth, BVSc, DACVS-SA (Ventura, CA), demonstrates instrument portal placement for hip arthroscopy.
-
Elbow Osteoarthritis (OA)
Degenerative joint disease characterized by cartilage loss and bone remodeling within the elbow. Typically secondary to dysplasia or trauma, management focuses on pain relief and preserving mobility.
-
Commonly Breached Protocols
Ursula Krotscheck, DVM, DACVS-SA (Ithaca, NY), discusses commonly breached protocols seen in orthopedic surgery and oHers tips for avoiding them.
-
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.
-
Stifle Osteoarthritis (OA)
Degenerative changes in the stifle joint, often secondary to cruciate rupture or luxation. Management includes pain control, mobility preservation, and surgical options for advanced cases.
-
Arthroscopic Biceps Ulnaris Tendon Release
Ian G. Holsworth, BVSc, DACVS-SA (Ventura, CA), demonstrates an arthroscopic biceps ulnaris tendon release on a canine cadaveric limb.
-
Shoulder Portal Placement and Arthroscopic Exam
Ian G. Holsworth, BVSc, DACVS-SA (Ventura, CA), reviews key anatomic landmarks for establishing arthroscopic instrument and switching scope portals, ensuring optimal visualization of the cranial shoulder joint.
-
Drucker Horizon 24 Flex Centrifuge Operation
This video demonstrates the operation of the Drucker Horizon 24 Flex centrifuge for preparing autologous conditioned plasma (ACP).
-
Joint Disease
Degenerative joint conditions, including osteoarthritis, benefit from biologic interventions like PRP to reduce inflammation, support cartilage health, and enhance long-term mobility.
-
Overview of Canine Shoulder Biomechanics
Christopher Potanas, DVM, DACVS-SA (Naples, FL), provides an in-depth review of canine shoulder biomechanics, highlighting key points related to shoulder range of motion. This video is presented in memoriam to Dr. Christopher Potanas.
-
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.
-
Musculoskeletal Anatomy of the Canine Shoulder
Christopher Potanas, DVM, DACVS-SA (Naples, FL), provides an overview of the tendons and muscles that stabilize the canine shoulder. This video is presented in memoriam to Dr. Christopher Potanas.
-
Muscle Pathologies
Muscle tears and chronic strain injuries can impair performance and recovery. Biologic treatments, including PRP, help reduce fibrosis and restore muscle elasticity and strength.
-
Arthroscopic Cannulation System: Shoulder Application
Ian G. Holsworth, BVSc, DACVS-SA (Ventura, CA), provides an overview of the arthroscopic cannulation system and demonstrates its use in shoulder procedures.
-
Biomechanics of Canine Shoulder Stabilization
Sean Murphy, DVM, DACVS-SA (Boise, ID), explains why maintaining the shoulder’s center of motion and achieving isometry are critical during stabilization procedures.
-
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.
-
Canine Shoulder Anatomy
Christopher Potanas, DVM, DACVS-SA (Naples, FL), reviews the anatomy and pathophysiology of the canine shoulder. This video is presented in memoriam to Dr. Christopher Potanas.
-
Fundamentals of Shoulder Arthroscopic Portals
Ian G. Holsworth, BVSc, DACVS-SA (Ventura, CA), reviews the fundamental steps for establishing shoulder arthroscopic portals.
-

This section provides essential principles for managing musculoskeletal trauma in small animals. Explore core concepts, including radiographic planning for accurate diagnosis, the fundamentals of bone healing, and fracture classification systems that inform treatment decisions. Additional resources cover implant selection, fixation...
-
Canine Shoulder OCD: Anatomy
Christopher Potanas, DVM, DACVS-SA (Naples, FL), reviews the anatomy, pathophysiology, and classification of osteochondrosis dissecans (OCD) in the canine shoulder. This video is presented in memoriam to Dr. Christopher Potanas.
