More about MMP
MMP is a surgical technique for treatment of lameness caused by failure of the cranial cruciate ligament (CCL).
Named after a human surgeon, Dr. P Maquet, the MMP is a form of TTA and uses a pure titanium foam wedge to advance and fix the tuberosity. The MMP was developed to make Tibial Osteotomy surgery more widely available to surgeons.
