Introduction
Beak surgery
Common procedures
Congenital deformities
Trans-sinus pinning
Bandaging techniques
Ramp prosthesis
Fracture repair
Scaffolding
Bumblefoot
Beak prosthesis
Congenital deformities
Mostly seen in juvenile birds, occasionally adults
Beak
Upper mandible or bill
(Pre)maxillary, nasal bones
Lower mandible or bill
Two rostrally fused rami
Composed of keratin, dermis, bone
Mandibular prognatism
3/4/2014
Conservative treatment
Daily manual manipulation
Only effective if discovered in very early stages
Surgical intervention
Ramp prosthesis
Mainly in juvenile parrots
Ramp exerts an opposing
force to the scissors deformity
Ramp prosthesis
Trans-sinus pinning
Corrective dremmeling of overgrown keratin
Technique
a.
Technique
a. Upper beak deviated to the right
b. Preparations for placing ramp
Corrective dremmeling of beak
Roughening of lower beak surface

Trans-sinus pinning
EAAV Madrid 2011
Technique
a. Place IM pin transversely into
frontal bone
frontal bone
Left in place for 2-3 months
duration
Mandibular prognatism
Upper beak is placed inside lower beak => malocclusion
Most common in cockatoos
Causes similar to those described for scissors beak
3/4/2014
Technique
Creation of a functional cap
Extending distally from cere
Encompassing pressure bearing
keratin at occlusal ledge of maxilla
Scaffolding
Primarily used in adult birds with marked deformities
Chronic deformities present
Hyperflexion of the nasal-frontal hinge,
Technique
Non-threaded IM pin placed
Similar to trans-sinus pinning
Limb surgery
Treatment of common conditions
Fractures of the thoracic and pelvic limb
Pododermatitis or bumblefoot
Fractures
Long bones commonly involved
Thin cortices, little soft tissue
Clinical signs
Wing droop, inability to fly
Lameness, unequal weight bearing
