It has been 14 years since 'Anatomy for orthopedic surgeon' was born. It was originally my own notebook I had written for studying, but somehow passed down to the colleagues, and later published as a book. The revised edition focuses on fixing some typographical errors and illustrations. In addition, I studied the illustrator program to create pictures that can help easier understanding of an innervation. As the number of reader has been increasing, there were some requests to translate the whole text into English.
Without the works of Kyung-Soo Oh, Joon-Suk Park, Jae-Kyoung Jung, Jung-Sup Keum and Siti Hawa Tahir who are now back to Malaysia, for the last two years, this book could not be completed. They took the time to assist me despite their busy schedule. This 3rd edition will be useful for clinical trials as it contains clinical points, including those reflect the helpful comments I gained from many of the readers as well as those from my clinical experiences. Moreover, it is transformed into a vivid book by changing the pictures, which hugely depended on the foreign books, into Korean ones with the help of Koonja publishing company and by re-drawing the illustrations that look closer to real things.
I would like to thank Ye-ryeon Noh and the CEO, Joo-yeon Jang who put their utmost efforts to fix even small errors whether it was hot summer or cold winter. Also, I would like to ask your sharp advice on the book if there is any part that needs to be changed and wish all of the readers a huge success in the future.
