Techniques in Small Animal Soft Tissue, Orthopedic, and Ophthalmic Surgery offers fast access to step-by-step procedures for the most common surgeries in small animal patients. This book discusses the relevant anatomy, brief pathophysiology, pre-operative considerations, potential complications, and treatment options and detailed techniques for a wide range of surgical procedures, as well as the equipment needed to perform them. Written by specialists from around the world, the 54 chapters each cover multiple treatment options or variations to techniques described in the literature, featuring soft tissue, orthopedic, and ophthalmic surgeries.
Practical tips and tricks for success in the operating room applicable to technicians, general practitioners, and surgeons are included throughout the book. High-quality color photographs accompany the surgical descriptions, along with video clips demonstrating some of the techniques hosted on a companion website.
