Orthopaedics and Lameness

Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation accelerate tissue healing by galvanizing normal physiological process so that the functional normalcy of an affected part is restored faster.

Common Affections of Tendons and Ligaments is usually caused by trauma or by surgical tenotomy. Medical conditions that affect collagen (e.g., iatrogenic or naturally occurring Cushing’s disease) also can promote tendon rupture.

Fracture Fixation Systems are External Coaptation and Internal Coaptation methods. External coaptation may be used to provide patient comfort before surgery and decrease soft tissue damage.

Principles of Fracture Repair are Reduction of the fracture fragments, Retention of the fracture fragments & Immobilisation.

Fracture is a complete or incomplete break in the continuity of bone or cartilage. A fracture is accompanied by various degrees of injury to the surrounding soft tissues, including blood supply, and by compromised function of the locomotor system.

Spondylosis is a degenerative, noninflammatory condition of the spinal column characterized by the production of bone spurs along the bottom, sides, and upper aspects of the vertebrae of the spine.

Cruciate Ligament Rupture is one of the most common injuries in dogs and the major cause of degenerative joint disease (DJD) in stifle joint.

Hip Dysplasia in Dogs is a deformity of the hip joint that occurs during growth characterized by joint laxity.

Osteochondrosis Disease (OCD) is a disturbance of cell differentiation in metaphyseal growth plates and joint cartilage.

Degenerative Joint Disease (DJD) or Arthrosis refers to a noninflammatory degenerative joint condition characterized by a lack of inflammation in the synovial lining and the presence of normal or near-normal synovial fluid.
