Shoulder and Elbow Arthroplasty

Summary:

Written by the world’s foremost orthopaedic surgeons, this volume is the most comprehensive, current reference on shoulder and elbow arthroplasty. The text is organised into two sections: Shoulder and Elbow that are then divided in two subsections, which discuss implant considerations and disease specific considerations. The book provides state-of-the-art information on implant design and detailed guidelines--including treatment algorithms--on specific arthroplasty procedures for arthritis, fractures, chronic dislocations, and other disorders.

FEATURES:

More than 400 illustrations complement the text
Every chapter includes a "Chapter-at-a-Glance" summary for easy review of the chapter content
Includes chapters on complications, revision arthroplasty, arthroplasty with bone loss and limb salvage, and alternatives to replacement arthroplasty
Disease-specific chapters cover surgical anatomy, pathophysiology, preoperative evaluation, indications for surgery, implant choices, surgical techniques, and postoperative rehabilitation
