The Foot and AnkleKenneth A. Johnson The series is designed to provide direct, detailed access to techniques preferred by orthopaedic surgeons who are recognized by their colleagues as "masters" in their specialty. The present volume contains the ways a group of orthopaedic surgeons--young and old, male and female, nonacademic and academic--approach an array of foot and ankle problems. The procedures selected--the surgical challenges that face the general orthopaedic surgeon--range from toenail ablation to involved multiple arthrodesis. The collective experience of 31 surgeons is presented in 37 chapters with some 180 illustrations and 400 photographs/radiographs Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR |
