This talk walks through the most common orthopaedic causes of lameness in dogs, organized by joint: shoulder, elbow, hip, stifle, and hock. We’ll cover typical signalments, presenting signs, and diagnostic strategies for each region, with a focus on the conditions general practitioners are most likely to encounter. By learning to recognise patterns while avoiding diagnostic traps, clinicians can improve confidence, efficiency, and patient outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRegionalise Lameness:\u003cbr\u003eDevelop a systematic approach to localising lameness to specific joints through history, gait assessment, and orthopaedic examination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecognise Common Joint-Specific Conditions:\u003cbr\u003eIdentify the most frequent causes of lameness for each major joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBreed and Age Patterns:\u003cbr\u003eUnderstand how signalment and breed predisposition can guide differential diagnosis (e.g., Labradors with elbow dysplasia, small breeds with patellar luxation).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiagnostic Tips:\u003cbr\u003eGain practical tips on when and how to use radiography, joint palpation, and referral diagnostics (e.g., arthroscopy, CT) effectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers__title\"\u003eSpeakers:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers__speaker\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers__speaker__name\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMark Newman\u003c\/strong\u003e, BVSc MVS MANZCVS DipECVS, Specialist in Small Animal Surgery - VetSurg\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Singapore Vet 2025","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60313167724830,"sku":"ucq1791942308763","price":23.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/1992\/9374\/files\/why-pattern-recognition-is-sometimes-a-good-thing---common-breed-related-lamenes_1.png?v=1791942318","url":"https:\/\/upcycledstylewear.shop\/products\/why-pattern-recognition-is-sometimes-a-good-thing-common-breed-related-lameness-in-dogs-svs25","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
