Sommario/riassunto

Enriched by original anatomical artworks this atlas comprehensively presents the diverse orthopaedic approaches to lower limb surgery. Combining clear visual information with a consistent and concise structure, including tips, tricks and pitfalls, this manual presents all the most used approaches in orthopaedic prosthetic surgery and traumatology. Ranging from the hip to the ankle each chapter includes



a clear presentation of the joint’ s anatomy, with particular emphasis on vessels, nerves and other relevant anatomic structures. Beautiful water-colour illustrations realized by one of the authors accompany the reader step-by-step through each of the approaches described. This atlas offers a timely and up-to-date resource for both practicing and fellow orthopaedic surgeons with an interest in lower limb surgery.
