Reviews / Votes
From the reviews:
"The editors have done something no one else has done - created one of the most comprehensive treatises on meniscus injuries ever compiled. . This is a wonderful reference that will be of particular value for non-European surgeons . . great value to residents and fellows in training as well as researchers performing cutting-edge research on meniscus pathologies. . should be part of every organizational orthopedic library and will be a welcome read for any orthopedic surgeons who perform meniscal surgery. I strongly recommend it." (Mark R. Hutchinson, Doody's Review Service, September, 2010)More details
