Workshop Description

You’re experienced in bone plating, and you’ve treated your share of cruciate ligament ruptures with Extracapsular suture stabilization. You’re wondering … are you ready for TPLO?  … does it make sense for your patients who won’t/can’t accept a referral?  There’s only one way to find out … come learn about the concepts, fundamentals and techniques of the TPLO.
