Description: "Master Techniques in Orthopaedic Surgery: Sports Medicine is aimed at orthopaedic surgery sports medicine specialists. About half of the book is based on sports-related chapters from the Shoulder, Elbow, Knee, and Foot and Ankle volumes of Master Techniques in Orthopaedic Surgery. Other chapters are new to this volume and cover the shoulder, the elbow, the knee, the ankle, and the use of arthroscopy to correct hip problems caused by sports injuries. All chapters assume that the diagnosis is known and focus on selecting the correct technique. The contributors describe their preferred techniques in step-by-step detail, point out pertinent anatomy, 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"--Provided by publisher.
