Modern TPLO plates are essential for achieving reliable and effective outcomes in cruciate ligament repair procedures.
Cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) injuries are among the most common orthopedic problems in dogs, particularly in active breeds. Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) has become a widely accepted surgical solution, offering improved mobility and reduced pain for canine patients. Central to this procedure’s success is the use of high-quality TPLO plates, which provide the necessary support and stability for proper bone healing. Modern plating systems tailored to veterinary needs have transformed surgical outcomes, offering reliable, size-specific solutions with bundled instrumentation for streamlined operation.
Different breeds require appropriately sized implants to ensure proper fit and biomechanical function. The TPLO plating systems are available in both titanium and stainless steel variants, catering to small, medium, and large dogs. Each system is offered as a Full Set, containing two of every left and right plate size, or as a Scaled Set with a reduced quantity of plates and screws. For small dogs, the 2.0 mm and 2.4 mm TPLO systems provide lightweight yet durable options. For medium and large dogs, the 2.7 mm, 3.5 mm, and 3.5 mm broad plate sizes offer robust support for heavier loads and faster recovery.
Each TPLO system includes not only the plates and screws but also a complete set of surgical tools. This includes drill guides (for both compression and locking screws), drill bits, depth gauges, a screwdriver shaft and handle, k-wires, and a storage tray with a lid. Having everything in one kit ensures readiness for surgery and reduces the time spent assembling necessary tools. By including essential instruments in both full and scaled sets, veterinary teams are equipped to perform procedures consistently and efficiently.
Clinics can choose between stainless steel and titanium TPLO systems, depending on their preferences and surgical needs. Titanium plates offer corrosion resistance and biocompatibility, while stainless steel options provide durable and cost-effective alternatives. Both material options meet the structural demands of CCL repair and have been engineered to the same specifications, ensuring that surgical outcomes are not compromised regardless of the material choice.
Modern TPLO plates are essential for achieving reliable and effective outcomes in cruciate ligament repair procedures. With size-specific options, left/right anatomical contours, and complete instrument bundles, these plating systems support consistent and high-quality orthopedic care for dogs of all sizes. Whether using titanium for its strength and compatibility or stainless steel for its practicality, veterinary professionals benefit from comprehensive systems that simplify surgery and improve recovery.
