Orthopedic care

Orthopedic surgery is one of the most common types of surgery performed by veterinarians. You might think that accidents are the leading cause for this, but actually most orthopedic problems are genetic. The most common orthopedic condition is hip dysplasia. Many dogs also have serious knee problems that require surgery. In small breeds, the most common condition is patellar luxation (kneecap dislocation), while larger dogs tend to be plagued more by problems with their anterior cruciate ligaments.
