Comparing the Outcomes of Surgeries for Cranial Cruciate Disease in Dogs
19 July 2020
Cranial Cruciate Ligament Disease (CCLD) is the most common cause of hindlimb lameness and pain in dogs and therefore any research regarding its treatment could benefit thousands of dogs in the future. My study aims to compare surgical treatments for this disease to determine whether there is a difference between the outcome of the procedures. Any significant results found will contribute to how veterinarians treat the disease in the future, which will help dogs recover more successfully.
