Traumatology
The veterinary orthopaedics department also deals with the treatment of complex articular fractures, patella luxations, traumas of muscles, tendons and ligaments. External and internal fixation interventions are performed, with plates and fixators, which allow faster healing times and reduced disability.
Diagnosis and therapy
Orthopaedic diseases affect bones, joints, muscles and tendons. In recent years, veterinary orthopaedics is probably the discipline of the sector that has seen the greatest development and it is now possible to find new solutions to many problems that previously seemed unsolvable. In the first months and years of life of the animal it is important to examine and investigate for any significant indications on the future of the joints and on the first signs of possible dysplasias, so as to be able to intervene with resolving operative measures.
Arthritis
Animals that have not been subjected to an early orthopedic path are likely to suffer from advanced osteoarthritis, chronic-degenerative inflammation that leads to a progressive reduction in joint function. Our veterinary clinic is able to follow these patients, with the latest therapies available, and the use of dedicated anti-inflammatories.
