Cruciate disease is one of the most common orthopaedic problems in dogs. In this podcast we review the anatomy and function of the cruciate ligaments and then go on to discuss the ways in which they can become diseased, how the diagnosis is made, and what the various treatment options are including surgical versus conservative management. The podcast features Richard Meeson who is a Lecturer in Orthopaedic Surgery and part of the QMHA Orthopaedic service. This podcast is a 'must listen' for anyone who sees or will go on to see dogs as clinical patients!
