Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews:

"...this is a thorough textbook that is appropriate for orthopaedists with a special interest in total knee arthroplasty. The bookÆs greatest strengths lie in the extensive clinical experience of its many authors and in the clear presentation of the material." (Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery)

"This book, dedicated to John Insall, is a broad description of the technique of implantation of a total knee prosthesis … . Preoperative assessment and planning are described extensively. Clinical evaluation is detailed with the most used knee scores. All currently available prosthetic designs are presented. … this book actually provides very interesting and relevant practical guidelines. The reader will get a comprehensive overview of all clinical and technical findings … ." (Jean-Yves Jenny, European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, Vol. 13 (3), 2003)

"This book which focuses on surgical technique in primary and revision knee arthroplasty includes 92 chapters distributed in 21 sections … . Each chapter presents a wealth of information in a concise way. … Overall this book … is a convenient concentration in a heavy but one-piece volume of a wealth of information covering virtually all aspects of knee arthroplasty. It should be of interest to every surgeon involved in knee arthroplasty … ." (R. Lemaire, Acta Orthopaedica Belgica, Vol. 68 (5), 2002)
