Workshop Description

You’ve treated enough complex patellar luxation / limb deformity cases to know what you don’t know (welcome to the club) and you wouldn’t mind a couple of days with your peers to participate in an exploration of what you and others are doing … or, perhaps, you’ve been reticent to attack these tougher cases until you were more confident in your assessment, planning and execution. Either way, this is the summit where you can feel comfortable because you’re with your peers who can be transparent in what they’ve been doing, what seems to work and what has not … as well as what they’d like to learn. This “no attitude” summit is all about learning together and exploring new frontiers. You are invited to submit a research or case report/series abstract for presentation during the Free Communications session in the Summit. Once you are registered for the Summit, Abstract Submission Forms and Abstract Submission portal can be accessed from within the course (Go to Account > My Courses). <- on TMI's website

  • Perform trochlear sulcoplasty using traditional sulcoplasty techniques or newer methods such as SCRT Cylindrical Sulcoplasty Perform patellar groove replacement using Kyon PGR.
  • Distinguish stifle rotation from tibial torsion and perform appropriate corrective treatments.
