TPLO Surgery (Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy)

For dogs suffering from cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) tears, we offer Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) surgery. This advanced orthopedic procedure helps stabilize the knee joint by altering the biomechanics of the tibia, allowing your dog to regain proper function and mobility. TPLO is particularly effective for large or active dogs, and it significantly reduces the risk of arthritis compared to traditional repair methods.

Our experienced surgical team is highly trained in TPLO and will guide you through every step of the process, from pre-surgical consultation and diagnostics to post-operative care and rehabilitation. With a commitment to your pet’s comfort and recovery, we provide thorough monitoring and support to ensure the best possible outcome.

Rupture of the CrCL is one of the most common reasons for hind limb lameness, pain, and subsequent knee arthritis. Since the development of this problem in dogs is much more complex than in humans, and they experience different degrees of rupture (partial or complete), the canine condition is referred to as ‘cranial cruciate ligament disease’ (CrCLD). While the clinical signs (symptoms) associated with CrCLD vary, the condition invariably causes rear limb dysfunction and pain.
