Description
Summary:"Fundamentals of Revision Hip Arthroplasty: Diagnosis, Evaluation, and Treatment is a unique book designed for surgeons who are beginning to more commonly encounter hip revisions in their practice. Unlike many books on revision, Fundamentals of Revision Hip Arthroplasty does not focus on the most difficult an challenging cases. Rather, Fundamentals of Revision Hip Arthroplasty is intended to guide the surgeon in the evaluation of the total joint replacement, review basic tenants and principles of revision arthroplasty, and guide the surgeon determining whether a given case is one that should be managed or referred to a tertiary orthopedic center. Along with their 32 contributors, Drs. David J. Jacofsky and Anthony K. Hedley provide detailed information inside Fundamentals of Revision Hip Arthroplasty, including preoperative evaluation, equipment requirements, surgical planning, need to allograft, and surgical techniques. Surgeons will be tackling hip revision surgery more frequently as the number of these cases is exponentially increasing. Fundamentals of Revision Hip Arthroplasty gives surgeons a "go-to" resource to turn to for guidance by community arthroplasty surgeons, arthroplasty fellows, and residents"--Provided by publisher
