Written by authors who have performed more than 800 total knee and hip replacement surgeries, this full-color book offers step-by-step guidance on this type of procedure. Hip and knee replacement surgery can improve the quality of life significantly in a wide variety of conditions and disorders, but total knee and hip replacement surgeries are special operations. The surgeons require the highest order of aseptic precaution, surgical skill, and a team of specialists in preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative techniques and protocols. This book fully explains step-by-step procedures and precautions to be observed in undertaking this kind of surgery. Full-color photographs and a DVD of surgical procedures enhance the book's usefulness.
