Sommario/riassunto

"Covering all major approaches from the shoulder to the foot, the book gives you step-by-step visual instruction revealing the anatomy as it actually appears to the surgeon. Each chapter takes you through each layer of the approach from the initial incision to the final step in detail. Special features of the atlas include: over 400 color photographs that depict surgical anatomy; fresh cadaver specimens portray the true colors of the anatomy involved; step-by-step coverage of more than 60 approaches to the foot, hand, thigh, knee, spine, and more; identification of all structures revealed during each step of the exposure; and each approach is accompanied by practical advice on its uses, advantages, disadvantages, structures at risk, technique, helpful tricks, and what will become visible if you get off track." "Ideal for



residents, Atlas of Orthopaedic Surgical Exposures offers an introduction to surgical anatomy, providing them with the essential orientation they need. Seasoned orthopaedic surgeons will turn to this book to refresh their knowledge of the surgical anatomy and ensure a smooth operation."--BOOK JACKET.
