elbow arthrodesis plates
Severe elbow DJD is difficult to manage. Despite advances in elbow replacement, outcomes are not entirely predictable and even when pain free, dogs rarely have a normal gait.
The single size elbow arthrodesis plate currently available will fit most Labradors and is available either as a non-locking plate or as a non-locking and locking hybrid. Applied medially with an inbuilt 110˚ bend, the distal segment engages with the ulna.
