"The fourth edition of this book on knee arthroplasty has been significantly updated since the 2008 third edition. Purchase of the print book includes access to an ebook with enhanced video, audio, and interactive capabilities.
This book seeks "to provide direct, detailed access to techniques preferred by orthopaedic surgeons who are recognized by their colleagues as 'masters' in their specialty." This worthy objective is wonderfully accomplished with the videos accessible in the ebook.
This book is appropriately written and composed for practicing surgeons as well as fellows and residents still in training. The numerous contributors are recognized authorities and innovators in the areas in which they have written.
Basic and advanced principles, surgical approaches, complex issues and complications of primary and revision knee replacement arthroplasty are detailed. Surgical alternatives to standard knee replacement are provided.
This is an excellent publication and a necessary addition to the academic orthopedic surgical library. It provides valuable information to those involved with total knee replacement. Significant changes have occurred in knee replacement surgery in the past 10 years, and this fourth edition is justified.
It is truly composed "in the best interest of the patient."
