How to plan a TPLO in vPOP-pro!

How to calibrate your radiograph, measure your patient's tibial long axis, define the tibial plateau and measure the TPA. Rotate your fragment with fingertip precision. Measure your D1,2 and 3 and choose your implant. Join the vPOP-pro community at vpop-pro.com!

Hi, thanks for the great video. Looks like a very powerful tool ! Can you tell me what D1, D2 and D3 are measured for ? Thanks a lot !

[@vpop-pro]

You’re welcome . D1-3 allow you to reproduce your exact blade position in theatre . This ensures your centre of rotation is where you planned . In this way you can avoid or accommodate the implications of any tibial long axis shift , that your tibial crest thickness and shape is as you planned to minimise the risk of fracture and 3) predict / avoid any potential challenges of an ‘ uphill cut ‘ at the caudal cortex

'29 deegres' but in measurements is 61"????

Hi Samir. A Patient's TPA is the angle between the Tibial Plateau and the perpendicular to the Tibial Long Axis. ie 90- 61= 29' . The desired post operative TPA is 5', ie the angle between the postoperative Tibial Plateau and the Tibial Long Axis is 85' = 90-5' .

thank you @@vpop-pro

I'm confuse you saifd you need to ahve at least 10 mm/ 1cm from tibial crest, and you measure 7.8mm? shouldn't you change your cut or saw size?

Good Day Dr David, the choice of Crescentic blade size is usually determined as a proportion of the patient’s proximal tibial morphology rather than by patient body weight or from an absolute minimal crest width. Kindest regards.

@@vpop-pro thank you very much for the precision.
