Resumen
Se realizó una pasantía mixta en el Veterinary Health Center (VHC) de Kansas State University del 4 al 31 Mayo del 2015 y en el Hospital de Especies Menores y Silvestres(HEMS) de la Universidad Nacional de Costa Rica del 8 de Junio al 5 de Julio del 2015, con una duración de cuatro semanas en cada institución, abordando casos ortopédicos con requerimientos quirúrgicos para su tratamiento.Se sometieron 117 pacientes a procedimientos quirúrgicos, de los cuales 69 fueron en el VHS de Kansas State y 48 en el HEMS de la Universidad Nacional. El padecimiento mayormente tratado fue la ruptura de ligamento cruzado craneal (RLCC), este fue corregido con técnicas distintas dependiendo de características y necesidades del paciente y de la experiencia de los cirujanos. Por esta razón se consideró importante el desarrollo de un caso clínico de RLCC desde su consulta hasta su recuperación post quirúrgica mediante Osteotomía Nivelatoria del Plato Tibial (TPLO).
