Value to Your Practice

Hip luxation is the most frequently reported joint luxation in small animal practice, usually resulting from trauma or severe hip dysplasia. Attending this workshop will allow you to surgically treat these patients with confidence, as the high frequency of recurrence after closed reduction often makes it a suboptimal option.
