Rupture or tearing of the cranial cruciate ligament is the most common orthopedic injury affecting dogs. This injury leads to pain, lameness, and arthritis in the affected joint. According to the American College of Veterinary surgeons, surgery is the standard treatment for cruciate ligament rupture in dogs, while TPLO(Tibial plateau leveling osteotomy) is recognized as an effective treatment in the small animal orthopaedics. The TPLO was first designed by Slocum in 1993 to treat knee instability caused by ACL rupture. By shifting the tibial plateau in a posterior-distal direction, it reduces the stress on the ACL during weight bearing and also moderates the forward thrust of the tibia.
The TPLO slocum plate is malleable and the head part of the plate fits more closely to the anatomical bone while retaining the rigidity of medical stainless steel for stability and rapid healing. The lower profile notch for easier closure.
Indications: TPLO surgery for ACL injuries of the canine knee
