Full Description
With the growing challenge of revisions, infection and periprosthetic fractures in the geriatric population, this book offers a continuous reference guide that is engaging, case-based and allows surgeons to treat their patients with the latest techniques that are often not published in the general journal literature. The goal of this book is not only to offer the latest evidence and guidance in work-up and diagnosis, but more importantly, to provide real-world case examples that will be immediately applicable to the reader's own complex cases and scenarios. Tips and techniques for revision hip and knee surgery are presented in the context of periprosthetic infection and fractures, minimal to severe bone loss, loose and well-fixed components and more.
Pragmatic and user-friendly, Trauma and Infection Control in Revision Hip and Knee Arthroplasty will be a staple for surgeons, residents and fellows as well as medical students who wish to learn the nuances of complex arthroplasty care.
