Extensively revised and updated for its Third Edition, Operative
Arthroscopy remains the most comprehensive and authoritative
reference in this rapidly advancing specialty. World-renowned experts
describe the latest instrumentation and techniques and detail proven
minimally invasive procedures for the knee, shoulder, elbow, wrist,
hip, foot, ankle, and spine.
This edition gives experienced and training orthopaedic surgeons the
state-of-the-art information they need to stay current and increase
the coverage in their practice. New topics include meniscus repair
with implantable devices, arthroscopic knot tying, post-traumatic and
post-surgical shoulder stiffness, the thrower's shoulder, thermal
capsulorrhaphy, fractures about the shoulder, arthroscopic radial
head resection, arthroscopic management of the stiff elbow, elbow
arthroscopy in the throwing athlete, hip arthroscopy in the athlete,
arthroscopic-assisted management of ankle fractures, osteochondral
autografts of the talus, and subtalar arthroscopy.
Hundreds of quality illustrations--including full-color arthroscopic
views, surgical exposures, and line drawings--guide surgeons in
technique and clinical decision-making. The text offers stepwise
intraoperative instruction on commonly performed procedures,
including cruciate ligament reconstruction, meniscal repair,
stabilization of the shoulder, treatment of rotator cuff tears, and
meniscal and chondral allografts.
This edition includes a free DVD of surgical procedures, with over
200 minutes of select authors' video to demonstrate key surgical
points and techniques.
