myAO Knowledge update on Imaging, Navigation, and Computer-Assisted Surgery
Recent developments in imaging technology have allowed for rapid processing and visualization of significant amounts of data yielded from a variety of digital imaging modalities. Prerequisites have been established for three-dimensional (3D) visualization as well as programs for the computer-assisted 3D planning of surgical procedures, and these image sources are now available to assist the surgeon in the operating room.

Operative planning and management of cranial trauma is complex, varying by fracture and location. Surgery is often required for compound or depressed fractures significant enough to damage underlying tissue.
Children and adolescents present a unique challenge in trauma care because they are so different from adults. The risks to injured children and adolescents can be significantly reduced with the provision of appropriate care.
Besides access to two new AO Surgery Reference modules on Pediatric Trauma, myAO is offering you the following exclusive selection of "knowledge gems" around Pediatric Fracture Management.
Veterinary joint surgery includes a.o. cranial cruciate ligament surgeries and surgical treatments for a range of joint issues such as elbow dysplasia, hip dysplasia, as well as full knee and hip replacements.
In this clinical topic roundup, you´ll find an exclusive selection of AOVET´s knowledge gems on joint surgery.
Arthroscopic procedures can be performed on all joints. They are commonly used on the knee, shoulder and ankle joints, and less often on hips, elbows and other joints.
If something goes wrong with small animal fractures, early recognition and proper management is important and can be crucial in order to win the game in face of a complication.
There are a number of possible causes of bone deformities in animals, the two most common being a genetic disorder and injury (trauma). Limb deformities can be managed conservatively, by growth acceleration, growth retardation, or in severe or late diagnosed cases by combining these techniques. Once the growth plate has closed, correction can only be achieved by a corrective osteotomy technique.
Degenerative spinal conditions represent one of the most frequent domains of spinal pathology, which can affect patients of any age. Appropriate management can reduce the morbidity and improve significantly the life quality of these patients.
myAO is offering you the following exclusive selection of "knowledge gems" around spinal degeneration.
Bone deformity in animals can be caused by a range of factors, including injury and developmental abnormalities. Corrective treatments can include surgical procedures such as osteotomy or the use of corrective braces and splints.

Biomechanics, the application of mechanical principles to living organisms, helps us to understand how all the bony and soft spinal components contribute individually and together to ensure spinal stability, and how traumas, tumours and degenerative disorders exert destabilizing effects.
