Presenting recent advances in clinical diagnosis and treatment derived from an increased understanding of the biology of the hip, this unique text examines hip disease and pathophysiology through the lenses of kinematics, biomechanics, anatomy and metabolism. Opening chapters examine the impact of health care organization on hip care and prevalence and burden of osteoarthritis¿.Biomechanical considerations of the hip and gait pathomechanics in hip disease are then discussed, followed by chapters covering femoroacetabular impingement, possible links between OA and metabolic syndrome, osteonecrosis, osteoporosis and Paget's disease. Considerations of risk reduction¿ surrounding hip arthroplasty conclude the text, including device and surgical options for THA, hip sepsis and prevention of perioperative infection, and management of venous thromboembolism. Taken together, this represents a new and important context for the discussions and management of hip disease for orthopedic surgeons and researchers alike.

This book offers a comprehensive guide to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) that will assist in achieving excellent outcomes based on a sound understanding and technique. After an introductory section on the native knee that covers the anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, and patterns of disease, all aspects of primary knee arthroplasty are discussed in detail. Individual chapters are devoted to topics such as acute pain management, the role of technological aids, prosthetic kinematics, alignment targets, unicompartmental arthroplasty, patellar resurfacing, outcome measures, and cost-effectiveness. An extensive section explains the causes and management of potential complications, including aseptic failure, infections, and periprosthetic fracture. The surgical techniques appropriate for revision knee arthroplasty are described separately, and guidelines on how to deal with bone loss, instability, and extensor mechanism failure are provided. The authors are all respected experts from the United Kingdom, United States, Australia and Europe.

Book

'Essentials of Pediatric Endoscopic Surgery' approaches the implementation of endoscopic surgery by practising surgeons. The contributors are world renowned surgeons who have a vast experience and expertise in pediatric endoscopic surgery. Emphasis has been put on the decision making aspects, which have been divided under clear sections to highlight the important points in a concise manner. Pictorial operation room set-up and port placement sections help to optimize the ergonomics during procedures. Preoperative considerations along with the indications for surgery section offer better planning of procedures. The technical notes along with procedure variation sections give the readers the choice and information for opting for the possible modifications in procedures. The actual procedures are presented to the reader in high-quality photographs which offer a more accurate approach to the understanding of a procedure in a step-by-step manner. The incisive style makes this book a necessary part of every surgeon's library.

Previously published in hardcover

This book is written as a comprehensive guide for all tissue bank operators to procure and process bone and soft tissue allografts of highest quality standards for safe tissue transplantation practice in patients who require musculoskeletal tissue allograft transplantation. This comprehensive guide includes donor selection criteria, aseptic procurement techniques, laboratory testing and processing of grafts by deep freezing or freeze drying. It also includes sterilization of tissue grafts using gamma irradiation. Quality controls of tissue grafts are discussed in depth. The clinical transplantation of bone and soft tissue allografts is also discussed, with special consideration given to potential complications. Principles of sterile technique in the operating theater are described. The book also incorporates the basic sciences of tissue banking including anatomy, biomechanics, microbiology and immunology. It also covers radiation science so that the reader can better understand radiation sterilization of tissue grafts. Included in the book is a guide for public awareness programmes, radiation code of practice and general standards for tissue banking as recommended by the International Atomic Energy Agency.

The fifth in a series of reviews, centered on a single major topic (vol. 1 Bone Formation, vol. 2 Bone Resorption, vol. 3 Engineering of Functional Skeletal Tissues, vol. 4 Osteoarthritis) written by acknowledged authorities in the field, and aimed at researchers, clinicians and others involved in the bone field.

In-depth coverage of preoperative planning, surgical approaches, prosthetic choice, revision techniques, complications, and many other aspects of knee arthroplasty make this the ultimate "how-to" guide. A "Glossary of Implants" combined with over 900 detailed photographs and line drawings make this an essential addition to every orthopedic surgeon's library.

Salopp-neudeutsch formuliert, ließe sich die Zielsetzung des "Manuals zur orthopädischen Rückenschule" mit der Kernfrage umreißen: "Wie bringe ich den Lehrstoff der Rückenschule am besten rüber?" Das Manual wendet sich also an alle, die rückenleidenden Patienten die von der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Orthopädie und Traumatologie erarbeiteten Lerninhalte vermitteln: Krankengymnasten, Ärzte, Psychologen, Sport- und Gymnastiklehrer. Dieser Zielsetzung trägt die Neuauflage noch stärker Rechnung: Die Psychologie des Lehrens und Lernens wurde inhaltlich - in einigen neuen Kapiteln - sowie durch ein die Didaktik unterstreichendes Layout erweitert und verbessert. Und: Erstmals veröffentlicht, enthält die Neuauflage den vom ZVK herausgegebenen "Auffrischungs- und Wiederholungskurs".
