"Caesar," a Labrador retriever, is limping and has pain in his hind legs.
"Cesar," a 7-year-old Labrador retriever, has had a sore back leg for about a month due to running around the house. Caesar is quite overweight. After running around with other dogs in the house, he came back to his owner with a sore leg and was limping.
So I came to see Dr. Tang. At first, I had symptoms of stiff legs. It was quite difficult to examine whether there was a problem with a torn knee ligament. But the doctor used a palpation method because my child was worried, so the examination was quite difficult.
Because my legs are so tense and my little brother is big.
Finally, the doctor found that the knee ligament was torn and recommended surgery to bring the child back to normal.
The doctor advised the owner that the best method was surgery to adjust the bone angle.Because the surgery to adjust the bone angle will allow the child to walk back to normal weight bearing as naturally as possible.
TPLO is a method of cutting and adjusting the rotation of the tibia to the desired angle, allowing the dog to walk without the need for the hamstrings.
