Samenvatting:

The surgery that is performed by veterinarians on animals is known as veterinary surgery. It has been divided into three broad categories, namely, orthopedics, soft tissue surgery and neurosurgery. Orthopedics surgery is the surgery of joints, bones and muscles. A few examples of orthopedic surgery are bone fracture repair, hip dysplasia and arthroscopy. Soft tissue surgery includes the surgery related to body cavities, skin, cardiovascular system and respiratory tracts. Some of the other surgical procedures which are used in modern veterinary surgery are joint replacement, skin grafts and urogenital procedures. The surgical procedures which do not involve life-threatening conditions are known as elective procedures. A few examples of these surgeries are sterilization surgery, dental surgery, ophthalmic surgery and cardiology surgery. This book contains some path-breaking studies in the field of veterinary surgery and its advances. It also traces the progress of this field and highlights some of its key concepts and applications. This book is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area as well as for experts.
