What is ALPS?
The Advanced Locking Plate System (ALPS) is an advanced internal fixation technique designed specifically for pets. Widely used in dogs and cats, ALPS provides rigid stabilization for limb fractures, joint fusions, and complex orthopedic conditions. With its multi-axial locking screw technology, ALPS ensures superior fixation with minimal soft tissue disruption.
What Pet Cases Are Suitable for ALPS?
- Long bone fractures (femur, tibia, radius, ulna)
- Comminuted, spiral, or segmental fractures
- Non-union repair and revision surgeries
- Post-tumor bone reconstruction
- Elbow or hock joint arthrodesis
Whether your pet is a small, energetic dog or a large working breed, ALPS offers the rigid support they need to return to a healthy, active life.
⚙️ Why Choose ALPS?
- Multi-axial locking technology for strong fixation
- Titanium alloy implants: lightweight and biocompatible
- Low-profile design reduces tissue irritation
- Compatible with various bone sizes and pet breeds
- Promotes faster bone healing with excellent post-op recovery
Surgical Process & Post-Operative Care
ALPS surgeries are performed by experienced veterinary orthopedic teams, combining preoperative imaging and precision intraoperative positioning. Following surgery, a professional recovery plan is essential, including:
- Pain management and infection prevention
- Crate rest and gradual weight-bearing training
- Follow-up imaging at 2, 6, and 12 weeks
- Nutritional and weight support
Most pets regain walking ability within 8–12 weeks, with some returning to full pre-injury activity levels.
