Description
Muscle and tendon injuries can occur frequently in canine patients. Lameness can vary from mild to severe; acute to chronic. Lameness can self-resolve within hours or require extensive surgery. Some injuries can be cured; whilst some require a lifetime of management.
In this webinar we will cover the different types of injury that can be sustained by these tissues and unravel why the clinical presentation and treatment can vary so widely. We will cover pathophysiology, examination findings, diagnostics, and treatment options. Case examples of common conditions will be included.
