Veterinary DPO Plate

The Veterinary DPO Plate is a pelvic osteotomy implant designed to support professional canine orthopedic procedures. DPO, or Double Pelvic Osteotomy, is a rotational pelvic procedure used by veterinary surgeons to improve acetabular coverage and hip joint stability in selected immature dogs with coxofemoral joint subluxation. The plate helps maintain the planned position of the rotated pelvic segment after osteotomy and during bone healing.

Angle and side options: The Veterinary DPO Plate is available in 20°, 25°, and 30° configurations, with right and left versions for the corresponding surgical side. The angle should be selected by a qualified veterinary surgeon according to the patient's clinical examination, diagnostic imaging, hip joint laxity, acetabular coverage, and operative plan. Choosing the correct side and angle helps the surgical team match the implant to the planned pelvic rotation.

Designed for a planned surgical workflow: During a DPO procedure, the pelvic segment is rotated to improve the relationship between the acetabulum and femoral head, then stabilized with a suitable plate-and-screw construct. This Veterinary DPO Plate is intended to be used as part of a complete veterinary orthopedic system. The surgeon should confirm the required screw type, dimensions, drilling instruments, fixation sequence, and postoperative management before use.

Applications and target customers: The product is intended for veterinary orthopedic surgeons, referral hospitals, and distributors serving canine hip and pelvic surgery. It may be considered for selected immature canine patients with hip instability or subluxation when a pelvic osteotomy is clinically appropriate. Patient selection and implant choice must be determined by a trained veterinary professional; the product should not be presented as a general treatment for every case of canine hip dysplasia.
