A Practical Essential for Every Orthopedic and Trauma Surgeon

New York, NY, July 24, 2015 --(PR.com)-- “Operative Approaches in Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology,” Second Edition, recently published by Thieme, is a unique operative guide that features content gleaned from the authors’ years of evidence-based, clinical experience. From the cervical spine to the foot and ankle, each part of the body is divided into detailed subsections. Multiple approaches are included to treat common and rare musculoskeletal injuries, conditions, and diseases. The concise descriptions are complemented by meticulously crafted, labelled anatomical drawings illustrating each step of the procedure—from the skin incision to the targeted region to incision closure.

This book is an excellent clinical reference for spine surgeons, residents, and fellows in the fields of orthopedic surgery and neurosurgery, neuroradiologists, and engineers working for spine device companies.

Special Features:
• The addition of more than 40 new surgical procedures, including soft tissue preservation techniques used in trauma surgery
• More than 700 color illustrations drawn directly from dissections or documentation from the operating room

This comprehensive, state-of-the-art atlas is an invaluable surgical resource for all orthopedic surgeons, residents, and medical students.
