Synopsis

This book expands on the established treatment of muscle disorders, concentrating on infections and emergency diagnoses that carry high stakes. The author locates the history of surgery in the discipline of thyroid surgery for context, which both provides authority to the information given on muscle emergencies and contextualizes the gravity of these conditions. The author focuses on common and rare threats to muscle health such as tetanus, eclampsia, and gas gangrene, and presents methods of surgical intervention, including rare surgical approaches. The text comments on the high mortality rate of untreated muscle disorders, and the information provided aims to reverse that trend.
