Feline Orthopaedics; the Pelvis and Hindlimb (Intermediate Level)

This intermediate level course is a highly practical course based on common orthopaedic conditions of the hindlimb.

- Surgical approach to the feline hip 

- Surgical approach to the feline ilial wing & ilial body 

- Surgical approach to the femur 

- Hip: capital physeal fracture repair, hip luxation stabilisation, femoral head and neck excision arthroplasty
