Surgical procedures

All pictures and radiographs correspond to procedures done entirely by Marcel Hernandez




Knee

TTA, TPLO, lateral suture and isometric technique for Cruciate disease.

The whole range of Patella luxation techniques such as Tibial Tuberosoty Transposition and sulcoplasty, rigid stop, PGR (Patella Groove Prosthesis) and Limb correction for luxation grade IV and deformities.

A combination of TTA and washers is used when Cruciate ligament and Patella luxation occur in the same knee at the same time.











Hip

  • Femoral head and neck arthroplasty
  • Toggle for hip luxation
  • TPO-DPO (Triple/double pelvic osteotomy)
  • Symphysiodesis










Elbow

  • PAUL (Proximal Abduction ULna osteotomy)
  • Double oblique osteotomy
  • Ununited Anconeal process surgery
  • Fragmented Coronoid process removal










Shoulder

  • Medial stabilization for shoulder instability
  • Intra-lesional infiltratiion of tendons and tenotomy
  • Cartilage flap removal for OCD










Fracture repair

The whole range of fracture repairs with plates and screws (DCP, LDCP, SOP Locking); external fixation in monoplanar and biplanar construction, Tie-in, FESSA (for very small animals) and Hybrid circular system, in large and small bones, skull, jaw and spine.

Panarthrodesis and arthrodesis of Carpus and Tarsus.











Intra-articular infiltration

Stem cells and PRP (platelet rich plasma) are infiltrated into the joints to enhance healing and reduce the painful symptoms of ARTHRITIS.











Soft tissue

The whole range of abdominal surgery is performed, including the most common, such as enterotomy / enterectomy, hernias (diaphragmatic, inguinal and perineal), cholecystectomy, colonectomy, cystotomy, GDV, etc.

A variety of procedures are performed in other areas, such as partial and complete ear ablation, brachycephalic syndrome, thyroidectomy, anal sacculectomy, oncological and reconstructive surgery, sialocele removal, urethrostomy, etc.











Arthroscopy

Inspection of the inside of the main joints allowed determination of the presence and severity of the lesions. Correction of intra-articular pathologies like FCP or OCD is also possible.
