Welcome to OrthoVetInfo!
I created this space so I can share my experience and insights as a veterinary orthopedic surgeon,
offering clear and approachable veterinary orthopedics content that hopefully can be valuable
for owners and veterinary professionals with similar interests.
TPLO post-op care
TPLO surgery or Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy, is currently the most common surgery for the correction of a cranial cruciate ligament disease.
Post-op home care can be challenging but not impossible.
Short-term challenges are mainly wound management and restriction of activity.
While long-term challenges regard pain management, restore of limb function and osteotomy healing.
