Tarsal hyperextension injuries occur when the strong supporting ligaments behind the ankle are severely torn. Unfortunately, simply repairing these damaged ligaments often does not provide reliable long-term stability. The more dependable solution is usually a partial or complete tarsal arthrodesis, where the unstable joints are permanently fused to create a strong, pain-free, functional limb. In this older dog, we performed a partial tarsal arthrodesis. These procedures can sometimes be more challenging as the bones are small, the anatomy is complex, and success depends on meticulous joint preparation, precise alignment, and very stable implant placement.

This is a Monteggia Fracture in a 60 lbs English Pointer. A Monteggia fracture is a rare forearm injury characterized by a fracture of the ulna and accompanying dislocation of the radial head at the elbow joint. This one was successfully repaired with a 3.5mm locking plate, placed on the caudal surface of the ulna. The bone healed well after 8 weeks.

Here is a recent x-ray of an older Boston Terrier who sustained a spiral fracture of the left tibia. The surgery involved two locking bone plates, placed at a 90 degree angle from one another. This is called orthogonal plating and creates a 3D support system which stabilizes the bone in two different planes.

Here is an x-ray of a recent broken radius/ulna surgery that we performed. What made this a little trickier than most is that the break is close to the end of the bone, and so a specialized bone plate was needed. You can't tell from this picture, but the plate was in the shape of a T. 3 screws were in one side of the break and another 4 screws were in the other side. This pet made a full recovery.

Given our concerns over Covid-19 and the recent shelter-in-place order from the state, we'd like to mention a few key pieces of information regarding our clinic and your pet's health:
1. We are still open. Veterinary clinics are considered an essential service. If you need us, we are here for you.
2. If you pet has an injury or illness, please give us a call. If you pet only needs an annual exam or vaccines, we ask that you postpone those visits. We do still recommend that puppies and kittens receive their booster series of vaccines.
3. All of our appointments will be seen curbside. In other words, we will greet you outside, and conduct the entirety of the appointment either outside or from your car. If your pet needs diagnostic test such as blood work or x-rays, your pet will be taken into the hospital by one of our staff. Also, depending on the size of your animal, our staff may bring your pet into the building for the doctor to perform the physical exam. You will still be seen by a veterinarian - but the interaction will be entirely outside. Running appointments this way helps to increase distance between people and the outdoor ventilation is safer.
4. Stay safe, and consider ordering take-out from one of our local restaurants, many of them are hurting right now.

We often get questions about a knee surgery called the CBLO. This is a nice alternative to the TPLO surgery for repairing a torn ACL ligament. The surgery is especially suited to younger dogs and dogs with mis-shappen knees. Here is a recent picture of one of our CBLOs.

X-ray of the Month. This poor dog had a shattered tibia (shin bone). We re-aligned it and held everything together with a long bone plate. He should make a full recovery.
