course DESCRIPTION
Toy breed dogs have similar orthopedic injuries to large dogs, but they also have injuries that are specific to them. The smaller patient size often requires special consideration when planning and implementing repair of fractures or joint disorders. Examples include distal radius and ulna fractures, femoral head and neck fractures, elbow fractures, and shoulder instability/luxation. This course will use plastic bones to teach methods of fracture stabilization and joint repair. Participants will have the opportunity to repair fractures and joint problems using locking plates, headless compression screws, and pins. Participants will use also use the latest technology- micro locking plates – to repair fractures of very small bones in these small patients. The implant systems used in this course are easy to use, great for the general practitioner and affordable. Postoperative management will also be discussed.
