OrthoBiologics provides state-of-the-art knowledge of current biologic therapies for a variety of orthopaedic conditions in a single source. The content is presented in a straightforward manner, including defining all currently available orthobiologic options, discussing processing characteristics and appropriate clinical use, and finally, summarizing clinical applications and outcomes as well as future potential directions.

In addition to covering current approaches and applications, the editors aim for this book to present “best practices” for those practicing and researching orthopaedic pathologies and orthobiologic treatments, including blood and cellular based therapies. The editors are world-renown experts in the field and this book fills a gap in the market.

Utilizing a case-based format complemented with schematic figures and operative photographs, this book presents all aspects of the surgical management of shoulder instability, including instability with and without glenoid and/or humeral head bone loss.The first section covers the essentials of the anatomy, physical examination and imaging techniques for the shoulder. The following three sections, illustrated with unique clinical case material, present anterior, posterior and multidirectional instability respectively, discussing the decision-making process required for these challenging patients. Techniques described include arthroscopic and open soft tissue stabilization, arthroscopic and open Bankart and Latarjet techniques, and arthroscopic and open bone block techniques. Concluding sections present special cases, future directions and evolving concepts.With contributions from leaders in the field, Management of Shoulder Instability: A Case-Based Guide is a valuable resource for orthopedic and sports medicine surgeons, residents and fellows, as well as allied health care colleagues (PAs, NPs, ATCs) who specialize in the treatment of shoulder instability patients.
