Premier Pet Orthopedic Surgery in McKinney, TX
Help Your Dog Move Pain-Free Again
If your dog is limping, avoiding play, or struggling with stairs, it could be a torn ACL (CCL injury). This condition causes pain, instability, and can lead to arthritis if left untreated. At Highlands-Eldorado Veterinary Hospital, we provide advanced TPLO surgery to restore your dog’s mobility. Our goal is simple—get your pet back to a happy, active life.
What Is TPLO Surgery?
TPLO (Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy) is a specialized procedure designed to stabilize your dog’s knee after an ACL tear. Instead of repairing the ligament, it adjusts the tibia’s angle to eliminate instability. This innovative approach reduces pain and improves long-term joint function. It’s especially effective for active and large-breed dogs.
Why Choose TPLO for Your Dog?
TPLO offers a permanent solution by correcting the knee’s biomechanics rather than relying on ligament repair. Dogs typically experience faster recovery and better long-term mobility. The procedure significantly lowers the risk of future injuries and arthritis. Most importantly, it helps your dog return to running, playing, and enjoying life again.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your dog will undergo a thorough pre-surgical evaluation, including exams and imaging, to ensure safety. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia by experienced veterinary professionals. Afterward, your pet is closely monitored for comfort and recovery. You’ll receive detailed home care instructions and follow-up plans.
Recovery & Next Steps
Recovery involves short rest periods, controlled activity, and gradual rehabilitation over a few months. Follow-up visits help track healing and ensure the best outcome. With proper care, most dogs return to normal activity within 3–6 months. Schedule a consultation today and take the first step toward restoring your dog’s comfort and mobility.
