Product Description

This volume of the acclaimed Master Techniques in Orthopaedic Surgery series is now in its completely revised Second Edition--with a new editor and group of contributors who represent today's foremost leaders in hip surgery. These world-renowned master surgeons describe their preferred techniques in step-by-step detail, explain the indications and contraindications, identify pitfalls and potential complications, and offer pearls and tips for improving results. The book is thoroughly illustrated with full-color, sequential, surgeon's-eye view intraoperative photographs, as well as drawings by noted medical illustrators. This edition has brand-new chapters on surgical planning and decision making, hip arthroscopy, and surgery for avascular necrosis, including hemiarthroplasty, core decompression, impaction, non-vascularized grafting, and vascularized fibular grafting. The primary total hip arthroplasty section includes new chapters on tapered, modular, cemented, and cementless stems and cemented and ingrowth sockets. The revision total hip arthroplasty section features a new chapter on the megaprosthesis and greatly expanded coverage of acetabular revision, including cement with roof rings, cementless, bulk grafts, and cages.

Customer Reviews

A bit outdated4
Very interesting if more into history of hip surgery. Most chapters seem to review outdated techniques, yet nice to review.
