Focusing on the most current, cutting-edge, innovative, and advanced arthroscopic techniques for wrist and hand, elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle, foot, and spine, this book presents orthopaedic surgeons with the detailed procedures needed to stay competitive in the age of managed care. With contributions from specialist leaders in orthopaedic and arthroscopic surgery, the text is supplemented by full-color arthroscopic views and custom illustrations, detailing complex procedures for rotator cuff tear, TFCC repair, meniscus repair, ACL reconstruction, intraarticular fractures and many others. Special sections on laser applications in arthroscopy and office arthroscopy make this volume a must for every practicing orthopaedic surgeon.
