Join us on June 18-19th 2026, for our TPLO Wet-lab AU workshop sponsored by Knight Benedikt  at the Advanced Centre for Education (ACE) in Sydney, Australia!

Cruciate disease is the number one surgically treated condition in small animal orthopaedic practice. The evolution of surgical techniques has seen an immense change in the veterinary landscape in the last decade. Tibial plateau levelling osteotomy is well recognised as the gold standard procedure for all size dogs.

There will be a dry-lab component in this workshop using dry bones paired with VOI TPLO implants. You are welcome to take home your completed dry-bone TPLO model for a charge of $300.00 exc GST. This model is a valuable tool in the clinic, especially when demonstrating and explaining the procedure to clients whose pets will be undergoing this surgery. Please indicate at the time of registration if you would like to purchase your completed TPLO model. The bone and implant set will be invoiced to your clinic following the workshop.

Registration Fee: $3,120 AUD ex. GST per person

Earlybird Registration Fee until 6 Feb 26: $2,770 AUD ex. GST per person
