This course is designed to teach participants the technical aspects of a variety of orthopedic surgery procedures. Some ‘theory’ will be included in the lectures but emphasis will be placed on the technical aspects used to perform each procedure thus maximizing time in the lab. Topics have been chosen that represent surgical conditions commonly seen in veterinary practice and include stifle arthrotomy, extracapsular stabilization for ruptured ACL, and femoral head and neck excision. Video of clinical case material will be used extensively throughout the laboratory to help illustrate each technique.
