CanineHipReplacement

Just a couple of weeks ago, in late August 2026, I crossed the sea to South Korea alongside my longtime colleague Dr. Dongxing Xu to lead the 2nd Korea Vetmaster Total Hip Replacement (THR) Masterclass, hosted at the 9th Busan Veterinary Conference (BEXCO). Following our sold-out Seoul workshop last year, this two-day intensive seminar drew immense interest from the Korean orthopedic community, selling out within weeks of its July opening. Backed by the milestone of having surpassed 1,000 THR cases earlier this year, I joined distinguished Korean surgeons from Leaders Animal Medical Center to deliver a complete theoretical and practical curriculum—from implant architecture and multi-angular femoral anteversion metrics to live surgical demonstrations. This journey proved once again that Chinese veterinary orthopedics—our domestic pride or "Guohuo ZhiGuang"—is actively setting international standards through sheer clinical precision.
