Revision Total Joint Arthroplasty

This comprehensive book is devoted to revision total joint arthroplasty and provides state-of-the-art guidance in a field where level-I evidence is difficult to produce. In the book’s respective sections, each of which focuses on a specific joint – the knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, or ankle – readers will learn how to manage these complex surgical techniques. Each section thoroughly describes the epidemiology, causes and surgical techniques, as well as clinical results and complications. Filling an important gap in a rapidly evolving field, this book will appeal to all healthcare workers involved in the care of affected patients, including orthopedic surgeons and fellows, rehabilitation specialists, pain physicians, podiatrists and nurses.
