Description
The Multiple Ligament Injured Knee: A Practical Guide to Management presents the orthopaedic surgeon with an unprecedented review of the most recent and advanced knowledge needed to successfully diagnose and treat knee ligament injuries. This comprehensive and practical volume presents anterior and posterior cruciate and collateral ligament anatomy and biomechanics, along with non-invasive methods for diagnosing the extent of injury, such as radiographic and arthroscopic evaluation. Various injuries are discussed along with useful treatment techniques, including arthroscopic reconstruction, posterolateral and posteromedial corner injury and treatment, assessment and treatment of vascular injuries, assessment and treatment of nerve injuries, rehabilitation, and post-operative results. Each of these clearly written chapters is accompanied by a wealth of line drawings and photographs that demonstrate both the surgical and non-surgical approaches to examination and treatment.
The Multiple Ligament Injured Knee will be a valuable guide for attending orthopaedic surgeons, trauma surgeons, sports medicine fellows, orthopaedic surgery residents, as well as allied health professionals, including physical therapists, physician assistants, and all who treat traumatic injuries of the knee.

Reviews / Votes
From the reviews: "Multiple ligament injuries of the knee occur predominantly in young, fit and active patients. ! these injuries are rare but this means that few surgeons have significant experience in their management. This book ! is therefore of great value. ! It should be a mandatory purchase for any surgeons with an interest in soft-tissue injuries of the knee." (R. Allum) "Written by a team of experienced contributors, this practical guide discusses the essential aspects of the management of a knee with multiple ligament injuries. ! An extensive number of treatment options are examined ! . This work is clearly written and contains the most recent information, invaluable for orthopaedic surgeons, trauma surgeons, residents, physical therapists and all other health professionals involved with traumatic injuries of the knee." (D. Zorman, Acta Orthopaedica Belgica, Vol. 71(1), 2005) "If the surgery of the anterior cruciate ligament is perfectly codified, the multiple ligamentary traumatisms of the knee are definitely less ! . G. C. Fanelli and co-authors propose to share their experiments in a real didactic step. ! this work is addressed primarily at not only surgery specialists of the knee, but also experts confronted with traumatology, in order to better appreciate the lesional diagnosis of multiple ligamentary lesions, and thus to take the adequate decisions according to the experiment." (L. Balabaud, European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, Vol. 16, 2006)More details
