A focused laboratory on canine stifle arthroscopy and current static & dynamic stabilization techniques with a combination of short, cutting edge lectures and two wet lab sessions spread over an eight-hour period. Lectures will cover stifle arthroscopy instrumentation, maximizing intrarticular visualization, manipulation and debridement of intra-articular stifle structures, examination and treatment of meniscal pathology and presentation of concurrent stabilization techniques for the unstable cruciate-deficient stifle. Participants will have haptic models and cadaver stifles to perform the described techniques and will be instructed and guided through the techniques by experienced and proficient stifle arthroscopy & stifle stabilization surgeons.
