Featuring 775 full-color illustrations, Surgical Exposures in Orthopaedics demonstrates the surgical approaches used in orthopaedics and provides a surgeon's-eye view of the relevant anatomy.
Each chapter details the techniques and pitfalls of a surgical approach, gives a clear preview of anatomic landmarks and incisions, and highlights potential dangers of superficial and deep dissection.
Surgical Exposures in Orthopaedics describes new minimally invasive approaches to the:
- spine
- proximal humerus
- humeral shaft
- distal femur
- proximal tibia
- distal tibia
Other highlights include new external fixation approaches for many regions and surgical approaches to the os calcis.
New illustrations of the appendicular skeleton are included. New drawings show the important neurovascular structures that need to be protected.
