Custom Stifle Braces
Custom stifle braces can be used post operatively following a ligament repair or when your pet is not a surgical candidate. Varus/vlagus deformities, partial ligament tears and/or a luxating patella can be accommodated with use of a custom stifle brace. "Tamarack" joints can be used to offload the stifle by mimicking the actions of a healthy ligament. Fractures can be set with a solid stifle design or can be used for long-term use to aid with non-unions.
"Ultraflex" joints can be used to increase range of motion where a contracture is present. A range of motion joint can also be used to set a desired range or to statically progressively aid in contracture management. Contact Animal Orthocare to discuss the best options for your pet.
