What to do about a “ruptured cruciate” diagnosis? There’s conservative management, traditional extracapsular surgical repair, TPLO/TTA (geometry-altering open knee surgeries), and TIGHTROPE CCL (minimally invasive surgical repair). We are NOT knife happy and yet orthopedic injury management is about quality and spirit of life. So, we did Tightrope. We had a dog with 2 ruptured cranial cruciate ligaments, 2 torn menisci, and a ruptured PCL. Tightrope WORKED. Now we have a dog who runs again.
