It is a surgical procedure based on a similar human procedure described back in 1976. It is one of the bone cutting techniques for addressing veterinary patients with deficient Cranial Cruciate Ligaments (CCL). The CCL is one of several stabilizing structures of the knee (stifle) joint in the hind limbs of animals. It is a rope-like structure inside the joint acting as a static (constant) stabilizer of the knee. Its main job is to hold the tibia from riding or thrusting forward and from rotating internally. In humans it is referred to as the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL).
