Andreas Lenich – författare

This book offers a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to a selection of tried-and-tested arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgical procedures for treating pathologic conditions of the elbow. With the help of numerous figures, it explores in detail the elbow anatomy and biomechanics and provides a step-by-step guide to each surgical procedure – from simple diagnostics to complex reconstructions. Further, sharing the authors’ experience gained in their daily medical practice the book discusses borderline indications as well as potential complications, such as infection management – a topic that is rarely addressed. Intended primarily for arthroscopic surgeons interested in the field of elbow repair, this exhaustive guide is also a valuable resource for residents and elbow specialists.

Minimal-invasive Chirurgie und Arthroskopie auf hohem Niveau: dieses Buch thematisiert das Ellenbogengelenk als Subspezialität in der operativen Gelenkversorgung. Sehr gute anatomische Kenntnisse und arthroskopische Geschicklichkeit sind Voraussetzung, um eine Ellenbogenarthroskopie sicher und komplikationslos durchführen zu können. Hier setzt das Expertenteam A. Imhoff und A. Lenich an: ausführlich wird der komplexe Aufbau des Gelenkes, welcher die verschiedenen operativen Zugänge ermöglicht und auch erfordert, beschrieben. Die dargestellten operativen Verfahren reichen von der einfachen Diagnostik bis hin zu komplexen Rekonstruktionen. Ausgewählt wurden nur Verfahren, die sich in der Praxis bewährt haben und deshalb empfohlen werden können. Bewusst werden darüber hinaus Grenzindikationen und Komplikationen vorgestellt, wie z.B. das Infektionsmanagement, das nur selten ausführlich thematisiert wird.
