Titanium Tta Implants and Instruments Set Veterinary Orthopedic Surgery Instruments

Tibial tuberosity advancement (TTA)
Developed in Switzerland in 2005, TTA has been incorporated into mainstream veterinary practice because it is less invasive than the TPLO procedure. This surgery involves cutting through the tibial tuberosity and advancing it forward. The strong and thick patellar tendon passes through the kneecap and inserts into the head of the tibia, where it then bears tension and reduces the force generated by a CCL rupture. By advancing the tibial tuberosity, it reduces the angle of the slope and lengthens the patellar tendon.
Since the surgery is less invasive, it requires a smaller incision (7.5-12cm) [9], thereby reducing anesthesia and shortening the operation time; compared with TPLO, the patient can quickly bear weight and there are fewer direct postoperative complications. few. However, many studies conducted over longer periods of time have shown similar outcomes for each procedure.
Position requirements are similar to those for contingent workers; x-rays and follow-up are typically required during the 8th and possibly 12th week of recovery. TTA surgery usually requires 10 to 12 weeks of recovery time. Within 24 hours after surgery, the dog should be able to walk on its legs and bear moderate weight within two weeks. At this time, the dog can be taken to the toilet, and by the eighth week, the dog can be taken for a 30-minute walk twice a day. By 12 to 16 weeks, animals can slowly increase to normal activity levels. However, much depends on the protocols that individual clinics have in place for their clients.
