Innovation in the Operating Room: Overvet’s Pedro System for Spinal Stabilization
We are excited to share with you a video showcasing the incredible potential of our Pedro System, a technology developed by Overvet for spinal stabilization surgeries.
In the video, you can see how the Pedro System enables surgeons to perform delicate procedures with precision and safety, improving both treatment effectiveness and patient recovery.
The Pedro System is the result of years of research and development, designed to offer advanced solutions for veterinary and orthopedic surgeries, focusing on minimally invasive techniques and maximum post-operative stability.
➡️ Watch the full video and discover how Overvet is revolutionizing veterinary and orthopedic surgery with cutting-edge technological innovations.

It is not only an innovation in veterinary surgery, but above all an act of civilization towards the animal world, allowing our 4-legged friends to return to their lives!
This is the goal in designing our spinal fixation and distraction system to be used in lumbosacral stabilization.
In the video, we see an 8-year-old Labrador retriever in full recovery after 3 hours from the surgery.
Here are the details:
➡️ CLINICAL SIGNS: Relapsing low back pain without response to medical therapies.
➡️ RADIOGRAPHIC DIAGNOSIS: mild spondylolisthesis and spondylosis L7-S1 with increased radiopacity of formina.
➡️ MRI DIAGNOSIS: severe L7/S1 disc protrusion with compression of the cauda equina nerve roots, bilateral foraminal stenosis and ventral spondylosis. The resonance in traction highlights a lesion of a dynamic type (lumbo-sacral instability).
➡️ SURGERY: L7-S1 laminectomy, dorsal fenestration of the disc and removal of the disc protrusion, distraction and insertion of a cage into the disc space, L7/S1 stabilization with 2.4 mm titanium transarticular screws and 3.5 mm polyaxial pedicle screws.
➡️ POSTOPERATIVE RADIOGRAPHY: good L7-S1 alignment and vertebral distraction, cage positioned correctly, with opening of the foramina.
➡️ POSTOPERATIVE PROCESS: The patient gets up 3 hours after surgery and is discharged after 24 hours.
Thank you to Dr. Raffaele Gilardini, Medical Director of Clinica Veterinaria Città di Voghera.
