  2. 01 03 02 Several surgical options available for dog ACL surgery Extracapsular Technique Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) Tibial Tuberosity Advancement (TTA) • This technique involves the installation of surgical-grade nylon bands around the knee to mimic the functions of an intact ACL. It is commonly used for dogs weighing greater than 10 lbs • TPLO is one of the most common ACL surgery procedures in dogs. It involves making a small cut at the top of the tibia bone and rotating the cut portion to reduce the slope of the tibial plateau. This procedure changes the biomechanics of the knee joint to redirect forces away from the torn ACL • TTA is another surgical technique used to treat ACL injuries in dogs. It involves cutting the tibial tuberosity and moving it forward to change the angle of the patellar ligament, reducing the strain on the ACL

  3. It's important to note that not all dogs with ACL injuries require surgery. In some cases, conservative approaches such as rest, immobilization, pain medications, and the use of orthopedic dog braces may be sufficient for the dog to recover without surgery The cost of ACL surgery for dogs can vary depending on factors such as the location, the specific surgical technique used, and any additional treatments or medications required. The choice of surgical technique depends on various factors, including the size, weight, and activity level of the dog, as well as the severity of the ACL injury.
