All prices exclude VAT 1.0mm Plate and Screw Kit 1.0mm Plating System - Multiple Metacarpal Fractures Mark Bush of Dick White Referrals was recently presented with a case involving multiple metacarpal bone fracture in a 1.7kg Chihuahua. Management of fractures in dogs such as the Papillon and Chihuahua weighing less than a kilo is very challenging. Even 1.5mm and 2.0mm screws are too large. Metacarpals in even some medium size patients require very small implants. To deal with fractures in tiny bones we have introduced our exclusive range of 1.0mm implants and equipment. The range includes T-plates, compression plates and 5 different cuttable strips. Due to the small size, dedicated instrumentation is required. The 1.0mm Plate and Screw Kit includes all the 1.0mm Instrumentation and a complete range of Implants. Kit Price Code: CORTSTP10 OFFER PRICE £2,950.00 Operating on such tiny, delicate bones, Mark chose to repair the fractures with our 1.0mm Plating System, specifically using a 1.0mm Cuttable Plate from the range. Mark reported that the fracture healed uneventfully and the dog returned to normal limb use. Images and Case courtesy of Mark Bush, Dick White Referrals The Veterinary Instrumentation range of Cuttable 1.0mm Plates gives flexibility for new management options for a number of different fracture scenarios. All of our Cuttable Plates have round holes. The range is suited to fractures of the small bones of the pes and manus, such as the metacarpal bones, as well as other fine bones such as the ulna and fibula. They should also find a home in the management of long bone fractures on very small animals as well as jaw and pelvic repairs where space is at a premium.

Standard DCP or Round Hole Plates are held into position by being trapped between the head of the screw and the bone. Tightening the screw pulls the bone up to the plate. When the screw is tight the threads of the screw pull against the bone holding the plate in position. The situation with locking screws and plates is very different. Although the threads of the screw shaft engage the bone, the interface between bone and screw is not related to attachment of the plate. In locking plates and screws it is the interface between the screw head and the plate which attaches the plate to the screw. As the screw is tightened the bone maintains its position relative to the plate, it is not drawn up to it. The screw head engages with the plate.

Levering the tibial tuberosity cranially and then inserting and securing a cage into the osteotomy gap to maintain the advancement. An incomplete osteotomy reduces stability less than the complete osteotomy seen in the original TTA technique and is subjectively more comfortable for patients. There are now two recognised TTA Rapid techniques. The original involves drilling of a ‘Maquet’ hole at the distal extent of the osteotomy. This provides a fixed location point for the guides used when making the osteotomy and in theory helps force distribution around the circumference of the hole making cracking around this point less likely. The technique of drilling a hole at the end of a ‘crack’ has been common and accepted practice in various engineering applications for decades. External Fixation Step by Step Guide We are pleased to announce that along with extensive input from Gareth Arthurs, PGCertMedEd, MA., VetMB., CertVR., CertSAS., DSAS(Orth)., FHEA., MRCVS., RCVS Recognised Specialist in Small Animal Surgery (Orthopaedics)., we have produced a NEW Step By Step Guide on External Fixation. The Guide features an introduction to Linear ESF, Circular ESF, Free-form ESF and Hybrid ESF. The guide also features advantages and disadvantages of ESF as well as surgical techniques and pin placement. A body of surgeons believes the Maquet hole is directly responsible for tibial shaft fractures, especially where it is over-sized in proportion to the tibial shaft diameter, so a second technique has evolved that doesn’t use a Maquet hole at all. Avoiding the use of a Maquet hole leaves more bone stock behind, which may leave it stronger. For further information, please see our website for a short animation of the TTA Rapid Technique, and a video of the surgical technique is also available on our DVD code DVDALL, or email us at info@vetinst.com To order your FREE copy please email info@vetinst.com or call our Vet Tech Team on 0845 140 9596 E-mail: info@vetinst.com www.vetinst.com C-Lox (Patent Pending) Developed over several years by Rita Leibinger Medical in cooperation with Professor Dr. Franck Forterre, Bern University (Switzerland), C-Lox is gaining quite a following amongst European spinal surgeons for intervertebral distraction fusion. Manufactured in pure titanium using the same advanced selective laser sintering (SLS) 3D printing technology as TTA Rapid cages, a trabecular structure approaching the same Young’s modulus as cancellous bone is created. In theory this reduces the risk of subsidence commonly seen with many of the more basic metallic implants. The trabecular structure also encourages early vascularisation and bone through-growth. C-Lox cages feature integrated spikes that stand proud of the bearing surfaces and engage with adjacent vertebral end-plates. Additional locking screw fixation provides for a secure primary fixation. Technique Summary 1. Preliminary cage size is selected following imaging 2. From a ventral approach, the affected intervertebral disc space is identified and exposed 3. Drill adjacent vertebral bodies using a 2.5mm drill-bit and distract the intervertebral disc space using the C-Lox Distractor 4. Perform laminectomy 5. Use the C-Lox Spinal Disk Broaching Curette to remove all remnants of the nucleus pulposus and to create a bed for a C-Lox cage 6. Use trial cage (template, no spikes) to confirm cage selection 7. Insert final cage 8. Mark start point for screws using dedicated guide and drill-bit 9. Insert special C-Lox self-drilling, self-tapping titanium locking screws A multi-centre European C-Lox study is currently in progress headed by Dr Franck Forterre and Günter Schwarz. With early results showing great promise, the decision has been made to make C-Lox available to experienced spinal surgeons outside of the trial group and not to deny a greater patient population access to C-Lox surgery. The full C-Lox kit contains all the C-Lox instrumentation and drill bits, 1 of each trial cage, 1 of each implantable cage and 5 screws of each screw length. The full kit is available for purchase, but UK customers may like to start by hiring our short term loan kit for specific cases (subject to availability and terms of use). Please contact our Vet Tech Team on 0845 130 9596 or email info@vetinst.com. C-Lox Loan Kit This kit is available for experienced spinal surgeons only. A charge of £100 is applied to cover the courier charges (both delivery and return). (UK Only). The kit will be supplied non-sterile with a full set of implants.

Tel: 0845 130 9596 Fax: 0845 130 8687 Cruciate Head Cortical Self Tapping Screws Hex Head Screw Cruciate Head Screw For the lowest profile constructs, we recommend the use of cruciate drive screws. The screw-heads are significantly lower than the equivalent screw with a hex drive socket. Following surgeon requests we now have added 1.5mm, 2.0mm & 2.4mm Cortical Self Tapping Screws with a Cruciate Head to our range. The Cruciate Head design improves the security of grip when driving the smaller screws and is less likely to cause rounding off of the screw heads. Specific sized Screwdrivers have also been designed as well as inserts for those surgeons using or preferring the Modular Handle Screwdriver. The 1.5mm Screws are sized from 6mm - 24mm in length and the 2.0mm and 2.4mm are sized from 6mm - 40mm in length. Features: • Low profile head • Increased strength over standard self tapping screws • Improved drive coupling vs. hex equivalent • Carefully tapered thread run-out below head • AO compatible Special Offer Order 25 x 1.5mm or 2.0mm Cruciate Head Cortical Self Tapping Screws (please state size/ lengths required when ordering) and receive a FREE 1.5/2.0mm Cruciate Head Screwdriver (please state code SDX1520FREE) worth £115.00 Order 25 x 2.4mm Cruciate Head Cortical Self Tapping Screws (please state lengths required when ordering) and receive a FREE 2.4mm Cruciate Head Screwdriver (please state code SDX24FREE) worth £115.00 NEW - Veterinary Instrumentation Loan Kits We are now able to offer Loan Kits & Units for certain procedures.

For these smaller patients, the TTA Rapid Petite system has been developed. The system features dedicated instrumentation and a dedicated selection of both cages and screws which the surgeon will find are better tailored to those smaller patients. FLEXIPATH Trocars are sterile single-patientuse instruments that consist of a mechanical obturator and a flexible sleeve. When activated, the mechanical obturator expands the flexible sleeve, which becomes secured to the mechanical obturator for placement. The flexible sleeve incorporates holes (for sutures or skin staples) to secure it to the skin. TPLO Narrow Head 3.5mm Broad Locking Plates An intermediate 3.5mm Locking TPLO Plate developed following customer requests. This Plate has similar strength in the shaft and mid section to the 3.5mm Broad Plate, but only 3 screw holes in the head section for use with smaller proximal segments. Arthrex Meniscal Instrumentation New to the Arthrex range is the Meniscal Probe Cutter and Stifle Distractor. The Probe Cutter incorporates a hook for meniscal probing and a spring loaded cutter is advanced by means of a slider in the tubular handle. The Arthroscopic Stifle Distractor sigmoid shape permits both stifle distraction and subluxation for optimal meniscal examination. Available in 3 sizes.

Tel: 0845 130 9596 Fax: 0845 130 8687 Patient Warming The benefits of preventing hypothermia both during and after surgery are well documented, both in terms of improved patient care and more efficient use of resources. Use of the AAS Darvall Cocoon Warm Air Blankets to pre-warm patients and Heated Anaesthetic Circuits for all procedures plus blankets under anaesthetised animals during longer procedures, over 60 minutes, followed by post-op cage blanket use will help optimise patient recovery from anaesthesia. For a free demonstartion of the Darvall Cocoon and Blankets and the Darvall Heated Anaesthetic Circuits in your practice please call our Vet Tech Team on 0845 130 9596 ‘As a specialist referral centre we have procedures that require the patient to be under General Anaesthesia for several hours, and this inherently cause issues with keeping the patient’s temperature normothermic.’ ‘Using the Darvall heated circuit has added to our ability to maintain the patients temperature. The heated tubing has made a positive impact on reducing the time it takes to warm them post surgery.’ Images & testimonial courtesy of David White RVN, Senior Veterinary Nurse, Southern Counties Veterinary Specialists.

Gareth Arthurs, PGCertMedEd, MA., VetMB., CertVR., CertSAS., DSAS(Orth)., FHEA., MRCVS., RCVS Recognised Specialist in Small Animal Surgery (Orthopaedics)., Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon of Arthurs Orthopaedics. Technical Director The angular security of locking plate systems depends on a rigid interface between screw and plate. This is achieved by the use of interlocking threads. VETERINARY INSTRUMENTATION Multiple metacarpal bone fracture in a 1.7kg Chihuahua repaired using the 1.0mm plating system. Locking constructs offer inherently better angular stability than non-locking constructs. This can be useful when managing small fragments where only a low screw count is possible, such as with distal radial fractures, and corrective osteotomies or wedge ostectomies positioned towards the end of a bone. Our Technical Director & Orthopaedic Surgeon David Strong and our Consultant Gareth Arthurs will be demonstrating Locking Plates & Screws If you would like further information on Locking Technologies, please visit our stand 511 at BSAVA Congress where both David and Gareth will be available to give advice, practical demonstrations and hands on practical sessions.
