Clinical Trial

Sliding Humeral Osteotomy for Treatment of Elbow Dysplasia in Dogs

VSCP is enrolling patients in a clinical study evaluating the sliding humeral osteotomy (SHO) as a treatment of advanced medial compartment elbow disease (fragmented medial coronoid process and humeral osteochondrosis desiccans). This is a phase II clinical trial being conducted at select referral practices across the country in conjunction with New Generation Devices. Patients are considered candidates if the response to conventional surgical therapy (fragment removal or OCD lesion curettage) has been less than ideal. This new surgical procedure shows promise for improving function and reducing pain associated with elbow dysplasia.

10% discount for approved candidates. Subsequent follow-up exams and radiographs will be no charge*.

*Additional charge for medications to go home post-operatively.
