Thanks to all that participated in making this video available. It was the best presentation I found in researching the options for repair of the crucial ligament on the left rear in my 9-year old Springer Spaniel. Chose to go with the lateral fabella-tibial suture and currently in day one of recovery. Very much appreciate the video.
I wish all education techniques was like that video . Very helpful and illustrative . I feel sorry for many years wasted using the old methods of learning
Excellent visual presentation to clarify the anatomical details and procedures that were used on my dog. Although it was explained prior to the surgery, I couldn't visualize the details so this was a wonderful supplement for us in helping her through recovery. WELL DONE! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!
This video made me under just what was wrong with my dogs knee joint. She’ll be possibly having one of these procedures. Thanks for this informative video.
May I please ask how is she/he doing? My dog is going next week for the same operation and I cant decide which one to choose. She is only 5 kg, so Im thinking about the first method 🙏But Im not sure😢
Really appreciate this video. It's been the absolute best for educating me as to what happened to my Yorkie's knees and what the procedure was to correct. Right side was repaired June 2021, left is being done today (ruptured a week ago Saturday). Hopefully we are done with CCL and patellar luxation repairs after this. 🙏🏻🤞🏻🙏🏻🤞🏻🙏🏻 The lateral fabella-tibial suture was done on the right and it worked well. Same procedure being done on the left so I have high hopes. I will say the recovery and rehab period was not fun, five months total on the right, including migrating pin removal. Probably looking at about the same on the left. ☹️ Bad arthritis on the right, don't know about the left yet. Hopefully, it won't be as bad as the patellar luxation wasn't as bad as on the right.
My 9 year old - 95 pound German Shepherd was just diagnosed with a torn CCL. At her age and with my knee problems, she does not get a lot of exercise. I know her size / weight suggests TPLO, or TTA - but cost is an issue. I have read that the suture doesn't hold up well. I have watched the procedure performed on TH-cam on live dogs and leg models and one thing bothers me about the procedure. It looks like an ordinary drill is used and when you drill most materials, you wind up with an ~ 90 degree angle where the drilled holes meets the surface - in other words, a sharp edge. It's not hard for me to imagine that with suture / bone relative motion, that sharp edge will abrade / cut into the suture - causing it to fail. It seems like a far better method would be to design a custom drill to radius the intersection of the hole with the surface, or to use a separate tool (similar to a router round over bit) to add the radius. I haven't been able to find any failure analysis for this procedure, but it seems like it could potentially be superior to either TPLO, or TTA - on the basis of not only cost, but performance as it seems the suture performs a very similar function to the ligament. I have to wonder if / and why not there hasn't been any work done to improve the longevity of Ex Cap. Your comments / thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Pete
Look into the Tightrope surgery. I have a 92lbs dog and that is what I decided on. The TPLO is what everyone suggests, but it is almost a guarantee that the other leg will tear shortly after. It has a lot of complications and the risk of getting bone cancer after the TPLO is 40x higher afterwards. I have seen 125lbs Mastiffs get the Tightrope surgery and it held for 9 yrs until he passed away. Just follow the aftercare instructions perfectly and it will be successful.
Thank you for your amazing art work, we have just come back from the vet, Our dog needs two legs done. And there going to do the procedure that involves rotating the bone. ( now we understand )
Please could you do one for the caudal cruciate ligament? It would be nice tonhave a sugnpost to video of dog walking with caudal cruciate injury. There is very little easy to find info on caudal cruciate injury especially of gait changes when there is this. Really good explanation though and thank you for making it available to view.
I read that the Lateral Suture Technique is the least expensive of the three surgical techniques, but also the least reliable, especially for dogs that weigh more than 50 pounds. I have a 21-pound Bichon-poodle. Very active little guy, and not that old. Just 6 years old and loves to run and play! Is that an appropriate surgery for him? Or should I consider TPLO or TTA as better alternatives? I also wonder at times if these injuries are misdiagnosed...??? I also read somewhere that some dogs end up having back problems whose symptoms appear to be an ACL or CCL rupture, but the real problem is in the back rather than the knee joint. I'm scheduled to take my little guy to an ortho vet surgeon in a couple of hours! I wonder what he is going to recommend. I'm nervous about this. Not just the cost, but I read that the rehab that follows surgery is supposed to be really difficult. Except for food and trips to the backyard for pee and poop, I'll have to leave my dog in a crate with an e-collar for about six weeks?! Geesh!!! He won't be happy in there for six weeks. I can guarantee it. Oh well. If I must, then I must. I hate to see him limping around.
@@mozerm Hey Matt, well right now it's March 29th, 2022, and my little guy had his TPLO surgery on November 9th, 2022. We went to BluePearl in Northfield, IL. (I don't know where you live. I live in the burbs north of Chicago.) He's doing great! Chochki's limp is gone! He's even running around, but probably not as much or as fast as when he was a little puppy. He had TPLO surgery, which is supposed to be way better than the lateral suture procedure. But it was EXPENSIVE!!!! $5,700.00, and the rehab was kind of rough, especially the first two weeks. My recommendation is that you ask your vet for a strong sedative to calm your dog down until the staples are removed. My dog was too active and too restless during the first two weeks of recovery, and so he ended up with a nasty infection, but it responded very well to strong antibiotics. The only thing that has me worried Matt, is that my vet told me that about 70% of dogs who need this surgery end up needing the same surgery on the opposite leg within a couple of years!!!! Geesh!!!! So now, I'm kind of paranoid, and I get really nervous if I see him trip over a crack in the sidewalk. He's also taking Dasiquin (spelling?) every day. It's a joint supplement that my vet recommends for dogs that have arthritis. I was told he should probably take this every day for the rest of his life. It's not that expensive. I'm able to get a bottle of these joint supplements from my vet's office. Just one word of warning. I think this may have happened because my little guy was climbing way too many stairs. I had a trainer who told me that climbing stairs is great exercise, even for little dogs. So, a couple times a week we would climb five flights of stairs at the indoor parking lot of a local university. I strongly suspect that's how this injury probably got started. Too many stairs! I don't think stair climbing is good for smaller dogs. And even for bigger dogs, stair climbing should be done with caution. Don't let your dog climb stairs that are waxed or slippery. The stairs should be carpeted. And I wouldn't overdo it. Maybe just one flight of stairs, and that's it. I met another dog owner whose dog is a cute little Corgi. They have stairs in their house, and their Corgi ended up getting the exact same surgery that my little guy had to have in November! I'm starting to think that climbing stairs is just really bad for little dogs, especially if the dog is older than let's say two or three years of age. Running is okay, and I think it's probably okay to jump on the sofa, etc., but I think the stairs could be too much for their little joints. Sorry if the answer is too long! But hey, you asked!!!! :-)
@@MathematicalCowboy Thanks for this reply! Very informative. $5700!!! Wow. It's crazy how much this costs. I honestly think they charge this because they know how much people love their animals and they'll pay it. Sad but true. I'm also worried about the odds of the other leg going. I was told 25-50%...but 70%! That's not very comforting but what can we do? I'm not putting her down over this that's for sure. I suppose we could try and let it heal on its own but was advised against that despite what many online articles and video's say. The stairs comment is interesting. Our dog goes down easily but has been hesitant to go up for a few years. She takes it really slow because our stairs are hardwood. Jumping off the bed is also a concern for us. We have no idea how she did this. There wasn't a moment where she yelped or anything. She just suddenly started limping on a walk one day. Anyway, glad to hear your little guy is back to normal!
@@mozerm Matt, I hope I don't sound like Mr. Know-It-All here, but I'm going to give you some advice. Your interior decorator won't like it, but please put heavy, thick carpeting on those hardwood stairs! My dog and me used to climb LOTS AND LOTS OF STAIRS. And the stairs that gave him the most trouble were the slippery stairs made of hardwood or some type of slick tile or ceramic material. They lose their footing, they slip, and hurt themselves. And dogs often do not understand the concept of, "Please WALK up the stairs SLOWLY!" Nope! My little guy has to RUN UP THE STAIRS AS FAST AS HE CAN!!! No wonder he got hurt! But I don't know how to slow him down. Hey, I am not Caesar Milan, the famous dog whisperer!!!! Regarding the expense...yeah, I know. If you think taking care of a dog is expensive, try horseback riding! Geesh! I never owned my own horse, but I share-boarded a couple horses when I was younger, and took a lot of lessons. VERY expensive. And the aristocratic types that own these barns will treat you like absolute crap if you're making less than $75,000 a year. It's really a shame because these animals need people to love them and care for them. And there are plenty of poor people out there who have all the love ❤️ it takes to properly care for these animals, but they won't get the chance because they ride the bus or train rather than driving a Tesla or Mercedes. Matt, don't wait. Get the surgery soon. Just pick one. Lateral suture (the cheaper surgery) or TPLO (better but much more money). Just do it! The longer you wait, the more damage will be done to your dog's knee joint. Arthritis is a chronic condition for both people and animals, so the sooner you address the issue the less severe it's going to be in the long run. I'm not a vet. I'm a math and computer science teacher, but I do my best to read up on stuff if I need the information to make an important decision. I hope things work out for you and your furry kid! Oh yeah, almost forgot. Regarding jumping off the bed...I've got a solution for that. Go on Amazon.com (where else?) and buy a couple of thick throw rugs. THICK, BIG throw rugs. They will provide some extra cushioning and lessen the impact on the neck, shoulders and front legs. I hope this stuff helps! If it does, I'll send you my bill in the mail! 😁
Thanks for the reply - I look forward to seeing more. I'm training to be a canine hydrotherapist, so this video is useful. Do you know of any others online that could be beneficial?
Hi Dave, I can't think of any off hand, but I will ask around and see if I can find some links and let you know if I get anything. Good luck in your training!

Thanks for the fantastic graphics and demonstration. This will certainly help people understand what is going on when the stifle is injured. Lateral fabella-tibial suture is the only surgical correction technique I've known to return a dog with a torn CCL to full mobitlity and range of motion. AFAIC TTA and TPLO can result in a dog who is just as or more disabled. I'd prefer to use a brace and allow scar tissue to stabilize the joint rather than employ either TTA or TPLO given their failure rate and the likelihood of bone cancer.
That's completely *false* information. My Labrador retriever had two TPLO surgeries in 2002. He was absolutely perfect after recovery! *Never* developed bone cancer. I've never even heard of that occurring. In fact, TPLO *discourages* arthritis onset later in life. 22-years later, I'm taking my current 13-year old Lab in for TPLO next week. TPLO is a wonderful surgery.

I’ll appreciate any info thank you
Just watching this makes my heart sick for what my poor puppy has to go through. Any recommendations? She is a small spaniel mix about 30 lbs and 6 years old.
@@cobbdan 7 weeks later my dog is doing fine. The hardest part was to reduce the dogs movements in the first few weeks. No walks, no stairs, no jumps... every step on (short) leash! Last thursday we had an xray and everything looks good.
@@MoDrig72 same here. One of my two german shepherds had TPLO on 12/1/20. The recovery was going great until she ruptured the other side over a week ago. TPLO on right side scheduled for this Wednesday. Stats suggest TPLO is the best procedure, but 50% of the dogs are likely to need it on both legs.

My dog has this problem right now I'm crying and I'm scared...
Me too!
Same...
Same!
So does mine...she is having surgery in 2 weeks . I pray yours is ok
What happens to the joint if no surgery is done, and the dog is put into a rest for 8 weeks? I have seen many take this method.
Once scar tissue forms it could *possibly* provide relief. But, that takes almost a year. Depends on the particular situation.
Fully understood ! Thank you
super clear and helpful, thank you!
Thank you.....this is awesome.
Excellent visual learning 👌
Thank you very very very much
Thanks for posting. I think my dog has this.
Excellent animation and explanation. Thank you.
this is very helpful thank you
Great video, very didactic. Thank you for shearing knowledge.
Would be cool to put the Meutstege Operation also in this Animation.
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much God bless you
Out of the three procedures..which one is the best?
Thank you for your animation.
Great video. Only wish it included the Modified Marquet Procedure (MMP).
Thanks a lot!!
My Golden Retriever had a TPLO done. But what are the advantages or disadvantages of TTO vs TPLO. Or is it a preference of the Vet?
Do you have more videos like this? Im struggling with learning canine and equine anatomy and would love to find more videos like this.
Taking my labby in on Thursday for surgery. I’m gutted..
How's your labby doing?
Awsm xplaination sr so much helpful ... I m lucky dat I got this vedio
the last surgery seems like it will have problems in the future
Beautiful
Thank you for this illustrative animation.

does the bone that's cut fill itself in after awhile ?
