Total knee replacements (TKRs) are very successful procedures, but they eventually wear out and sometimes complications may develop, requiring a further operation – revision knee replacement. A revision or ‘re-do’ total knee replacement procedure involves the removal of the existing TKR and its replacement with new components. This book presents orthopaedic surgeons with the latest developments, current indications and critical issues in revision knee arthroplasty, providing in depth discussion on surgical reconstruction of the knee and basic knee joint deformities. Part of the successful Mastering Orthopedic Techniques series, the book is highly illustrated with surgical photographs, operative diagrams, X-Ray images and tables. Other titles in the series include Total Knee Arthroplasty, Total Hip Arthroplasty, Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty, Spine Surgery, Intra-articular Fractures, and Knee Reconstruction. Key Points Complete guide to revision knee arthroplasty for orthopaedic surgeons Presents latest advances, current indications and critical issues Highly illustrated with surgical photographs, diagrams, X-Rays and tables Part of the successful Mastering Orthopedic Techniques series

Intra-articular fractures occur on the surface of a bone that meets a joint with another bone. They are more serious than fractures that do not involve a joint space because they are associated with much greater incidence of long-term complications (MediVisuals Inc). Part of the Mastering Orthopedic Techniques series, this comprehensive manual is a complete guide to the surgical management of intra-articular fractures. Beginning with an introduction providing an overview of articular fractures, the following chapters provide a ‘how to’ style commentary, joint by joint and by fracture type. Each chapter provides an understanding of different injuries, practical classifications, challenges in diagnosis and the reasons why one surgical option may be more appropriate than another for a particular fracture type. Each surgical option is described in detail with drawings, clinical photos, surgical techniques, equipment needed, tricks and techniques for reduction and fixation, and an overview of postoperative management, complications and results. Key points Comprehensive guide to surgical management of intra-articular fractures Provides ‘how to’ style commentary by joint and fracture type Includes nearly 1200 full colour drawings and clinical photos Written by an internationally recognised editor and author team from Europe, the US and Asia
