About this title

Synopsis

As a follow-up of the highly acclaimed work published in 1990, this Second Edition focuses on everything related to the knee ligaments. This edition has more clinical information, and features a new surgical section. Drs. Pedowitz, O'Connor, and Akeson examine the ligament from cell to patient, including biology, biomechanics, and clinical treatment. Since the past decade has shown tremendous expansion in the realm of knee ligament research, this edition was compiled with the strategy to bring everything into one convenient reference. A CD-ROM featuring narrated animations of functional biomechanics of knee ligaments is included in this edition.

Review

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery -- Praise for the previous edition: This book will generate advancements in our knowledge of the function, injury, and repair of the ligaments of the knee. By providing a foundation of knowledge and the impetus for new research, this book will join the ranks of Palmer's classic text."--Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery The Lancet -- Praise for the previous edition: "For the surgeon who wishes to think beyond a standard set-piece operation ... and who wants to start all over again from the basics, the book will be stimulating [and] refreshing...The illustrations are generally superb. There is also a wealth of technical detail and tips...Every library servicing orthopaedic surgeons must possess this important work."--The Lancet
