520 _aEfficient and simple surgical access is fundamental to the successful treatment of bone and joint disorders. The numerous and varied surgical approaches to be considered, are described in detail in this comprehensive atlas. With contributions from leading international specialists in this field, each chapter concentrates on specific limbs and joints and their surgical exposures. Operations are described with a compendium of illustrated descriptions; the semi-diagramatic illustrations retaining both clarity and anatomical accuracy throughout. This book is a source of reference for trainee and practising orthopaedic surgeons alike. The accessible style lends itself to many other fields including physiotherapy, radiology and bioengineering and it is therefore useful to anyone interested in the anatomical features and the stages of surgical approaches to skeletal system.
