Minimally Invasive Surgery in Orthopedics

- Sets the standard for major references in MIS
Includes the latest techniques
Integration of case studies and roundtable discussions is unparalleled
Valuable as a stand-alone reference and also as complement to Drs. Scuderi and Tria’s MIS Techniques in Orthopedics
and MIS of the Hip and Knee: A Clinical Perspective

The growth of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in orthopedics has been dramatic worldwide, as clinical results indicate
that patients who undergo MIS procedures typically experience minimized blood loss, smaller incision scars, shorter
hospital stays and quicker rehabilitation. Minimally Invasive Surgery in Orthopedics serves as the single-source
reference in the field, compiled by recognized authorities and filled with information about even the most challenging
MIS techniques. The book is divided into sections that focus on the shoulder and elbow, the hip, the knee, the foot and
ankle, the spine, as well as computer navigation, and each section is heavily illustrated and clearly written for ease
of understanding. Orthopedic surgeons, residents, and fellows who want to truly understand MIS will find this thorough
text invaluable.
