NGD, in conjunction with Board Certified Veterinary Orthopedic Surgeon Dr. Kenneth Bruecker, has developed a novel LTPO Plate to prophylactically address canine hip dysplasia, which can lead to arthritic changes to the joint. The LTPO increases implant fixation and significantly reduces screw pull-out. Early and late-stage screw pull-out is the single most reported complication of the TPO.
