Patellar Luxation Part 2: Case Selection and Surgical Approach

Course Details

This lecture has been RACE approved for 1 CE hour for veterinarians and veterinary technicians.

It has been said that “God’s problems become the surgeon’s problem as soon as a scalpel touches the patient”…life is too short to spend lots of time and anguish managing patient complications that could have easily been avoided in the first place! This lecture will utilize an evidence-based approach (supplemented by Dr. Palmer’s experience) to guide you in case selection so that you can enjoy more than your share of “surgical successes” and avoid the cases that are at risk of developing complications. You will also learn Dr. Palmer’s general step-by-step approach to patellar surgery as well view video demonstrations of a medial and lateral parapatellar arthrotomy.
