The veterinary surgeon is then able to examine\u00a0and assess the joint and remove only the torn tissues (cruciate ligament and damaged meniscus).\u00a0 No meniscal release procedures are performed.<\/p>\n<p>When the damaged tissues have been removed, the joint is closed. An incision is made in the fascia (tissue between muscle groups) to expose the end femur (thigh bone). Based on measurements taken from preoperative x-rays, the femoral plate is positioned and fixed in place with three locking screws.\u00a0 The tibial plate then engages the femoral plate, it is positioned over the tibia (shin bone) and fixed in place using three locking screws. The soft tissues and skin are then closed.<\/p>\n<p>Learn More: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=658wuWMk6es&amp;feature=youtu.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How\u00a0Simitri Stable in Stride<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0is Performed\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/div><!--\/.tab--> <div class=\"tab tab-recovery-time\"><strong>Simitri Stable in Stride\u00ae\u00a0Recovery Time<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>98% of all dogs that have undergone the Simitri Stable in Stride<sup>\u00ae <\/sup>surgical procedure were weight bearing within 24 hours of surgery.
