Designed as a concise guide to the essentials of total knee arthroplasty, as well as revision total knee arthroplasty, the text is ideal for orthopedic residents and surgeons. World-renowned experts cover basic principles and instrumentation, ligament releases, and bone defects. Fixation in total knee arthroplasty, both with cement and cementless, is considered. Complex topics regarding revision arthroplasty are detailed as well, including three-step technique, constrained total knee designs, and two-stage reimplantation for infected total knee arthroplasty. Revision of periprosthetic femur fractures and tibial periprosthetic fractures is also addressed. By highlighting key topics in total knee arthroplasty, this practical book is an invaluable reference to have on hand.

Now revised and expanded into a major reference work, Scuderi and Tria bring together leaders in the field for this update of their classic 2010 text on minimally invasive surgery in orthopedics. Organized anatomically, each section has been reviewed and revised with the most current information and techniques, both common and complex. An entirely new section on analgesics and anesthesia is included, and the former section on the upper extremities is split into three distinct sections on the shoulder, elbow, and hand, respectively, for a more in-depth presentation of these areas. Subsequent sections on the hip, knee, foot and ankle, and spine are similarly reinforced with the state-of-the-art for each region. The final section is reworked to include not only computer navigation strategies but other innovative technologies in MIS as well. Now, as then, this is the go-to reference for orthopedic surgeons, residents and fellows seeking a practical understanding of minimally invasive techniques in orthopedics.
