This adorable bundle of white fluff is an 11month old Pomeranian called Casper 😍

Casper was referred to Anderson Abercromby Referrals with a transverse fracture of his left radius and ulna.

Casper was admitted by Dr.Federico Piccinno who performed in house radiography to allow surgical planning, Federico and the team the stabilised the fracture with a 1.5mm locking Synthes plate and screws.

A modified Robert Jones bandage was placed for the first night to minimise post operative swelling and then Casper was discharged with some medication and a restricted exercise plan to follow at home.

Casper came back to visit us 6 weeks later for some radiography to see how the fracture is healing.
We are pleased to report that Casper is making excellent progress and the radiography showed advanced healing of the radial and ulna fractures.

Caper can now gradually increase his exercise over the next four weeks and providing there are no concerns Casper can resume normal exercise and activity 🥰

What is Shoulder Osteochronditis Dissecans?

🦴Shoulder Osteochronditis Dissecans , is otherwise known as shoulder OCD.
🦴Shoulder OCD is a condition that affects young, growing dogs and is most commonly seen in larger breeds
🦴This is a developmental condition where the cartilage at the end of the bone develops abnormally and doesn’t form into bone
🦴This area of the bone becomes weaker and the cartilage can detach from the joint surface and create a ‘flap’
🦴OCD will then cause discomfort and lameness which may be shown by a reluctance to play or exercise
🦴Treatment usually involves surgically removing the flap of cartilage through arthroscopy or arthrotomy
🦴Pictured is an arthrotomy of a shoulder, you can see the large flap of cartilage which was removed surgically

Our awesome vets, Cesar and Joni are taking part in Movember!

Movember is taking on 3 of the biggest issues facing men:
prostate cancer,
testicular cancer,
mental health and su***de.

Movember is for everyone, not just for men. Much to the delight of their girlfriends, Cesar and Joni have put away their razors and will be growing their moustaches for the month of November!

This cause is very close to Cesar’s heart as he lost his beloved Grandad to prostate cancer almost 30 years ago, so this joint fundraiser is in memory of Antonio Ferreira Avelar, Amigos

One of our nurses, Sarah has also taken on a challenge to help Cesar and Joni raise money for Movember and took part in a 10k ‘Morun’ which is a UK running event to raise awareness for Movember and men’s health issues

We are looking forward to seeing the handlebars! 🥸🥸
We are now on day 14 and the tashes are coming along nicely already 😜

Thursday 13th November is :
WORLD KINDNESS DAY 🌍🩷

Today serves as a reminder of the positive impact that kindness can have on health and wellbeing!

To celebrate this day, Anderson Abercromby have enjoyed some cakes and biscuits, and we were visited by the fantastic Crawley Spinal Health Chiropractic

Crawley Spinal Health run wellbeing workshops where they focus on education and advice in managing stress and spinal health care.

In the veterinary profession, back pain and injury is a common issue due to physically demanding tasks such as lifting patients, standing in theatre in awkward positions for long periods of time, and just hours spent bending, standing and kneeling all create strain on the spine.

Crawley Spinal Health provided short, individual assessments for the AA team to evaluate their posture and balance.

This is something that our head nurse Sarah kindly organised for the team to ensure that their mental and physical health is looked after.

Thank you Sarah for organising and thank you again to Crawley and Horley Spinal Health

Say hello to beautiful Georgie!

Georgie is a 1 year 5 month old British Shorthair that was referred to us for a hindlimb lameness affecting both her back legs.

Radiography revealed a ‘slipped capital physis’, this is a condition caused by abnormal development of the bone in young cats, causing a weakness in the femoral neck, leading to a hip fracture.

Bilateral femoral head and neck excision was performed to surgically remove the damaged part of the hips. This procedure removes the head of the femur and leaves an empty socket, the muscles of the leg hold the femur in position and scar tissue forms over time creating a ‘false joint’ - although anatomically different, it does provide pain free mobility as it has removed the section causing discomfort.

Georgie recovered really well from her surgery and has now been discharged and is resting at home, she is following a controlled exercise plan for four weeks.

Meet Arthur!
Arthur is a lovely 7-year-old Boxer who was referred to Dr. Joni Viitanen with a chronic stifle (knee) luxation.
After traditional radiographs, a CT scan was performed to assist with detailed surgical planning, and 3D-printed surgical guides were provided by Vet3D to ensure precision during the procedure. As knee replacement isn’t suitable for every patient, a stifle arthrodesis (knee fusion) was performed to provide Arthur with a stable and pain-free limb.
At his 6-week recheck, Arthur was doing really well and had already adjusted well to his new gait. We’re so pleased with his recovery and the improvement in his comfort.

We are so proud of sweet boy Donnie here who is doing really well after his surgery.

Donnie was treated by Dr.Miranda Aiken and the team at AA after he was hit by a car and fractured his pelvis in multiple places.
The left iliail wing was stabilised using a 2.4mm locking plate, whilst the right ilial wing was retracted and an arthrodesis wire placed through both ilail wings to hold everything in the right place.

Donnie recovered well and we saw him back again for his six week review, he is making good progress and is now able to stand and walk without difficulty.

Dr.Miranda had also recommended that Donnie lost some weight, as he was carrying a little extra. He has done fantastic well and managed to lose this 2.5kg whilst being on restricted exercise at home following his surgery.

Way to go Donnie ! 🤩

Meet Maya 😍 a beautiful 5 year old German Shepherd Dog.

Maya was referred to Anderson Abercromby Referrals to see Dr.Federico Piccinno as her owners had noticed signs of lameness affecting her back legs.
The symptoms had been progressively getting worse and did not improve with a course of anti inflammatory treatment.

Dr. Federico examined Maya and found her to have a restricted range of movement over her pelvic limbs , with the right side being more affected on manipulation.
Radiographs were taken in house which revealed severe hip dysplasia with advanced osteoarthritic changes in both her coxofemoral joints.

Following a discussion with Maya’s owners and exploring all treatment options, it was decided a total hip replacement of the right hip would be best suited for Maya.
Dr. Federico and the team performed the surgery which involved removing the damaged components of the hip joint and replacing them with prosthetic implants.

Surgery was successful and Maya was discharged with a strict recovery plan whilst the bone healed.

We are so pleased to say Maya came back for her six week review and is making excellent progress, she is now able to use her right leg without showing any signs of lameness or discomfort.

It brings the team so much joy to see our patients return to fitness and within the next few weeks Maya will be allowed to start being allowed off the lead again!

Fantastic news! Well done Maya for being so incredible!

Say hello to Lola ! 👋🏼🐶

This sweet girl was referred to Anderson Abercromby for a right hind lameness caused by a ruptured cruciate ligament in her stifle (knee)

Lola is a 9 year old West Highland White Terrier (more commonly known as a Westie 😉) and she was seen by Dr.Cesar Gomes.

Dr.Cesar and the team performed TPLO surgery, this procedure changes the biomechanics of the knee joint to provide more stability and eliminate any discomfort.

Pictured here is Lola after her surgery looking absolutely cute in her inflatable buster collar!

Lola has since been back to see us for her review appointment and we are pleased to report she is doing very well and is now able to gradually increase her exercise over the next six weeks!

We are very proud of Lola’s progress 🥰 with many thanks to practice veterinary surgery (billingshurst) for this referral
