A total of 696 tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) procedures were performed over a 30-month period following TPLO training. The overall complication rate was 18.8%. Complications were classified as perioperative (1%), short-term (9.3%), and long-term (8.5%). Examples of complications encountered during the study were hemorrhage, swelling at the incision site, premature staple removal by the dog, tibial tuberosity fracture, patella tendon swelling, and implant complications. Based on the rate of complications observed, clinical outcomes of TPLO procedures within 30 months of TPLO training were considered good.
在接受胫骨平台水平截骨术（TPLO）培训后的30个月内，共进行了696例TPLO手术。总体并发症发生率为18.8%。并发症分为围手术期（1%）、短期（9.3%）和长期（8.5%）。研究中遇到的并发症包括出血、切口部位肿胀、犬过早拆除吻合钉、胫骨结节骨折、髌腱肿胀和植入物并发症。根据观察到的并发症发生率，TPLO培训后30个月内TPLO手术的临床结果被认为是良好的。
