Description

An indispensable step-by-step guide on a full spectrum of open and arthroscopic knee procedures

Knee disorders are among the most common musculoskeletal conditions and, as such, constitute four of the top seven orthopaedic procedures. Currently, 720,000 knee replacements are performed annually in the US, with a projected 3.4 million surgeries by 2030. Knee Surgery: Tricks of the Trade edited by renowned knee surgeons and educators James P. Stannard, Andrew Schmidt, and Mauricio Kfuri features contributions from an impressive cadre of distinguished colleagues. The reader-friendly book fills a gap in the literature with easy-to-follow procedural guidance and pearls from a global who’s who of top knee surgeons.

The book is organized in three sections covering trauma, sports medicine, and adult reconstruction. In addition to comprehensive step-by-step procedural techniques, each of the 54 chapters is consistently formatted with succinct sections covering goals, key principles, indications, contraindications, tips and pearls, potential complications, pitfalls, salvage techniques, and postoperative care. A full spectrum of open and arthroscopic knee surgery procedures are included, with discussion of primary and revision approaches. Topics include management of fractures, ligamentous injuries, meniscal pathologies, osteochondral repair, and all types of arthroplasties.

Key Highlights

  • Firsthand tips and tricks focus on helping surgeons improve and master techniques
  • High-quality drawings and full color operative photographs illustrate important anatomical aspects and salient points.

This quintessential knee surgery resource will help orthopaedic surgeons, knee surgeons, and total joint specialists avoid pitfalls and achieve more optimal patient outcomes.

  1. David Lewis –

    This book is an invaluable resource for anyone involved in knee surgery. The step-by-step techniques are explained with precision, and the accompanying illustrations make even the most complex procedures understandable. I particularly appreciate how it focuses on practical tips and tricks that you can apply in the operating room. It’s a fantastic reference, especially for tricky cases where you need that extra bit of insight.

  2. Emily Thompson –

    As an orthopedic resident, I’ve found Knee Surgery: Tricks of the Trade to be extremely helpful. It’s not just theoretical but very hands-on, which is exactly what I need at this stage of my training. It covers a wide range of surgical techniques and offers practical advice that’s applicable in real-world situations. The only downside is that some sections could have more in-depth detail, but overall, it’s a must-have for anyone in orthopedic surgery.

  3. Robert Chang –

    This is easily one of the best books on knee surgery that I’ve come across. The techniques are broken down in a way that’s easy to understand, even for someone early in their surgical career. I’ve found it to be especially useful when preparing for complex knee reconstructions. The pearls of wisdom from experienced surgeons give you that extra edge. Highly recommend this for both seasoned surgeons and trainees.

  4. Megan Foster –

    I’ve used this book regularly in my sports medicine practice, especially for ACL repairs and other common knee surgeries. It’s a great resource, with lots of practical tips that aren’t usually covered in traditional textbooks. My only suggestion would be to expand the coverage on minimally invasive techniques, which are becoming more common. Overall, though, it’s an excellent reference.

  5. Michael Carter –

    This book has been an absolute game-changer for me. The chapters are concise but packed with useful information. I’ve been able to apply many of the techniques directly in surgery, and they’ve helped improve my confidence and outcomes in the OR. The focus on tricks and tips that only come from experience is what sets this book apart from other texts. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their knee surgery skills.
