Minimally Invasive Surgery of the Foot and Ankle

Minimally Invasive Surgery of the Foot and Ankle represents a novel approach to treatment of orthopedic
problems in the foot and ankle. The gradual change of philosophy in the management of foot and ankle
surgery means that patients require a less invasive approach to surgery and a consequent improvement
in recovery time. Describing the techniques and, importantly, the indications for minimally invasive
procedures for the management of foot and ankle ailments, this book will explain the management
of various conditions and how they can be approached using minimally invasive techniques. However,
rather than only concentrating on minimally invasive surgery of the foot and ankle, the authors will
be examining the options open to surgeons operating in this area - both open surgical
and arthroscopic - and explaining the benefits of each. Extensive radiographs, diagrams,
and intra-operative pictures will illustrate the procedures described.
