The 3D HIP Titanium Implant is a first-of-its-kind patient-specific 3D-printed shelf implant for the treatment of naturally occurring and residual hip dysplasia in dogs. Developed to become the most effective but least invasive and least traumatic treatment for Canine Hip Dysplasia (CHD) in the market, 3D HIP offers a much safer and more feasible alternative to existing gold standard treatments Tripe/Double Pelvic Osteotomies (TPO/DPO).
Course Overview:
We are delighted to invite you to a 3D HIP Intensive Course, an event dedicated to advancing veterinary orthopedic care for young dogs with hip dysplasia.
During this comprehensive workshop, you will gain invaluable insights and hands-on dry lab experience in:
• Understanding the principles of shelf arthroplasty for treating hip dysplasia.
• Defining inclusion criteria for recommending acetabular rim extension in young dogs with hip laxity.
• Mastering the surgical anatomy and performing acetabular rim extension with personalized 3D printed titanium implants.
• Learning the imaging aspects and workflow for 3D HIP, from patient inclusion to implant fabrication and surgery.
This unique event offers an exceptional opportunity to enhance your skills, interact with leading experts, and contribute to the future of veterinary orthopedic care.

Course Overview:
This course is designed for veterinarians seeking to elevate their expertise in diagnosing and surgically treating complex spinal conditions in dogs and even cats. Through a carefully curated mix of lectures, interactive sessions, and hands-on labs, this course offers a deep dive into the anatomy, pathology, imaging, and stabilization techniques of the cervical and lumbosacral spine.
The curriculum addresses thoracolumbar and lumbosacral conditions, including both canine and feline cases. The morning covers spinal diseases, imaging interpretation, and surgical indications for stabilization, particularly in Degenerative Lumbosacral Stenosis (DLSS) and spinal fractures.
Participants are introduced to advanced spinal implant technologies, including the innovative LeiPED Pedicle Screw System and the LeiCAGE Intervertebral Titanium Cages. The session covers technical details, surgical indications, and dedicated instrumentation for both systems. Together, LeiPED and LeiCAGE are designed to ensure reliable spinal fixation, restore disc height, support fusion, and provide immediate biomechanical stability with long-term osseointegration. In the afternoon, attendees will engage in a dry lab, practicing the use of the RL system on spinal models to gain tactile familiarity and technical precision.
Who Should Attend? This course is ideal for veterinarians with a solid foundation in orthopedic surgery who wish to advance into spinal procedures, whether you’re just starting to offer these procedures or looking to enhance your technique with state-of-the-art implant solutions
