TPLO is the gold standard for stabilization of the injured canine knee when a CCL tear is present. Whether there is a full or partial tear, it is best to correct the unstable knee as soon as possible to avoid injury to the meniscus (small stabilizing cartilage in the joint).
TPLO is ideal for Small to Extra Large dogs and we have 2 doctors that can perform this procedure.
Please watch this video for a detailed explanation of the mechanics in the knee and how this surgery is performed.
As an AAHA Accredited practice, we use the most thorough preoperative testing to ensure your pet is healthy prior to surgery. Our OR is like that of a human hospital as is the anesthetic monitoring.
You can trust Drs. Torok and Kwan to help your pet be back to running and playing, pain free, as soon as possible.
