Book Description
Written by the world's foremost shoulder and elbow surgeons, this volume is the
most comprehensive, current reference on shoulder and elbow arthroplasty. 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. More than
400 illustrations complement the text.
Each main section--shoulder arthroplasty and elbow arthroplasty--has three
subsections: implant considerations, technical considerations, and
disease-specific considerations. Disease-specific chapters cover surgical
anatomy, pathophysiology, preoperative evaluation, indications for surgery,
implant choices, surgical techniques, and postoperative rehabilitation. Also
included are chapters on complications, revision arthroplasty, arthroplasty with
bone loss and limb salvage, and alternatives to replacement arthroplasty. Every
chapter includes a "Chapter-at-a-Glance"
