TPLO and MPL

At Snowden Animal Hospital, we offer advanced orthopedic procedures including Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) and Medial Patellar Luxation (MPL) surgeries. TPLO is a surgical technique primarily used to treat cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) rupture in peta, a common cause of hind limb lameness. During TPLO, the angle of the top portion of the tibia is modified to stabilize the knee joint, allowing pets to regain function and mobility. MPL surgery, on the other hand, addresses luxating patellas, a condition where the kneecap dislocates from its normal position, causing discomfort and difficulty in movement. Our skilled specialist veterinary surgeon employs state-of-the-art techniques and equipment to ensure the best possible outcome for your pet's orthopedic needs.
