CE DAYTIME SESSIONS ANTI-ARRHYTHMIA DRUGS: WORKING THROUGH ARRHYTHMIA TREATMENTS Henry Green, DVM, DACVIM (Cardiology) 3:00 PM - 3:50 PM | Hemisfair Ballroom 2 This session will review the drugs available for treating common abnormal rhythms and their proposed best use based on their pharmacodynamic profile.

SURGICAL MANAGEMENT OF BRACHYCEPHALIC SYNDROME Howard Seim, DVM, DACVS 3:00 PM - 3:50 PM | Room 214 D This session will discuss the management of upper airway obstruction in brachycephalic breeds. Emphasis will be placed on nasoplasty and soft palate resection. A novel technique for nasal planum resection will be discussed. There is compelling evidence suggesting that not all everted laryngeal saccules need to be resected! Videotape will be used to illustrate surgical techniques. ANAL SACCULECTOMY; A NOVEL APPROACH AND RAPID SPLENECTOMY Howard Seim, DVM, DACVS 4:30 PM - 5:20 PM | Room 214 D Anal sacculectomy: a novel approach Anal sacculectomy is frequently performed in veterinary practice. It can be tricky to get all the anal sac epithelium and preserve the external anal sphincter muscle and caudal rectal nerve. I will suggest a ‘novel’ technique that allows the surgeon full control of the perianal anatomy and thus preservation of all vital structures during complete anal sac resection. Video showing this technique in a clinical case will illustrate its potential usefulness in your practice. Rapid splenectomy years ago, the anatomist suggested that in order to safely remove the spleen the left gastroepiploic artery and vein must be preserved, or the gastric blood supply would be put at risk. We now know this is not true! I will suggest a way to use this new anatomic information to safely remove the spleen in a non-GDV patient with 4 (maybe 5) ligations. We will then utilize this new knowledge of anatomy to develop a ‘plan’ to rapidly and safely remove the spleen in a dog that is bleeding to death! LATERAL FABELLOTIBIAL SUTURE SURGERY FOR STABILIZATION OF CRANIAL CRUCIATE LIGAMENT DEFICIENT STIFLE INCLUDING MENISCAL EVALUATION Karanvir Aulakh, BVSc & AH, MS, CCRP, DACVS-SA 2:00 PM - 2:50 PM | Room 207 AB This lecture will include patient prep and positioning, approach to the stifle joint and proximal tibia, evaluation of the joint/meniscus, how to address meniscal tears, lateral fabellar suture placement. Detailed surgical images and videos will be included. Indications, contraindications and potential complications of Lateral Fabellotibial Suture Surgery will be discussed. INNOVATIONS IN MANAGEMENT OF CANINE ELBOW OSTEOARTHRITIS Karanvir Aulakh, BVSc & AH, MS, CCRP, DACVS-SA 3:00 PM - 3:50 PM | Room 207 AB Canine elbow osteoarthritis is very difficult to manage because there are not very many good options available. This lecture will focus on currently available options to manage elbow osteoarthritis and more focus will be placed on new options and their pros and cons. Author will also present data collected and published by him from a clinical trial focusing on Synovetin OA® for management of elbow osteoarthritis.
