Animal Hospital of Northeast Agricultural University in Heilongjiang ProvinceDr. Chi Xinyu2025-10-31 7

German Shepherd, 4 years old, male, weighing 37 kilograms.

The left hind limb had difficulty bearing weight, which gradually worsened. The course of the disease was long. Under sedation, the tibial compression test was positive, and the drawer test was also positive. It was diagnosed as a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of the left hind limb, and it was decided to undergo TPLO surgery for treatment. Before the operation, precise surgical planning was carried out using the BlueSAOiBlueVet software. The TPA of the left hind limb before the operation was 27°. During the operation, a 27 mm saw blade was used, with a movement distance of 10.5mm, and the BlueSAO TPLO-11.5mm L pure titanium locking bone plate was used for internal fixation. The operation was successfully completed. Hopetorecover soon.
