Abstract
The ACL-Deficient Knee: A Problem Solving Approach, focuses on problem analysis and problem solving, as well as analyzing the possibility of prevention. In each chapter, the biomechanics, anatomy, etc. that are relevant to the topic are reviewed. There are chapters where highly specialized surgical techniques are presented (v. gr. double bundle reconstruction or meniscal transplant), as well as developing areas such as ACL tears in children, where we are finding a growing number of injuries due to the increase of sports at early ages. These chapters are written by internationally renowned specialists who are pioneers in the topics analyzed. To further enhance the educational content, there is a collection of online step by step surgical technique videos that will allow the knee specialist to perform the techniques presented in this book.
Contents
FOREWORD I -- FOREWORD II -- Treatment ACL-injuries still an unsolved clinical problem? -- PREFACE -- Historical Aspects on Surgery for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Deficiency -- Evidence-Based Medicine. How Can we Use it to Guide our Practice? -- What have we learned from the Kaiser Permanente Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Registry (KP ACLRR)? -- The Danish anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction registry. What we are doing, how we do it, and which would be the best way to do it -- ACL ruptures in the female athlete. Can we predict who is at increased risk and can we reduce noncontact injury rates? -- Anterior cruciate ligament surgery risk factors for development of osteoarthritis. What can we do to prevent it? -- The need for an objective measurement in-vivo of rotational stability of the ACL-deficient knee. How can we measure it? -- Guidelines for operative versus nonoperative management of ACL injuries -- The stimulation of healing of the anterior cruciate ligament. Research and clinical relevance -- ACL Primary Repair. What we did, the results and how it helps today to tailor treatments to the patient and the pathology -- Graft choice in ACL reconstruction. Which one and why? -- Graft healing in ACL reconstruction: Can we enhance it in clinical practice? -- Is double-bundle ACL reconstruction necessary? -- ACL injuries in skeletally immature patients and adolescents. How can we improve the high rate of poor outcomes? -- Indications for ancillary surgery in the ACL deficient knee -- Outpatient ACL surgery. Is it safe? -- Factors related to return to sport after ACL reconstruction: When is it safe? -- Return to sports after ACL reconstruction surgery. A risk for further joint injury? -- Psychological factors in the ACL reconstruction population. Are they predictive of patient outcomes? -- Acute anterior cruciate ligament tear surgery. Repair vs. reconstruction. When? -- Partial chronic anterior cruciate ligaments tears. What to do -- Chronic anterior cruciate ligament tear. Single-bundle ACL reconstruction. Anteromedial portal versus transfemoral outside-in versus transtibial drilling technique -- Anterior cruciate ligament tear. Rationale and indications for anatomic ACL reconstruction -- Clinical relevance of meniscus in the treatment of the ACL-deficient knee. The real value of meniscal transplantation -- Clinical relevance of chondral lesions in the treatment of the ACL-deficient knee: Microfracture technique -- The role of high-tibial osteotomy in the ACL-deficient knee -- ACL injuries combined with lateral and medial knee injuries. Acute vs. chronic injury. What to do -- ACL injuries in children.Treatment and Outcomes. Personal experience -- Combined anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with patella tendon lengthening following a complex knee injury -- ACL graft failure -- Reducing the risk of a reinjury following ACL reconstruction. What factors should be used to allow unrestricted return to sports activities? -- Anterior knee pain after ACL reconstruction. How to avoid it -- Limitation of joint range of motion after surgery of the anterior cruciate ligament -- Septic arthritis after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction -- Deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism after ACL reconstruction. What can we do to prevent it? -- VIDEO # 1 - ACL reconstruction augmentation technique AMB & PLB -- VIDEO # 2 - ACL reconstruction. The surgical technique -- VIDEO # 3 - Anatomic ACL reconstruction: (3-1) Anatomic single bundle ACL reconstruction, (3-2) Anatomic double bundle ACL reconstruction -- VIDEO # 4 Lateral meniscus transplantation.

Abstract
The Bone Book: An Orthopedic Pocket Manual is a complete guide to the essentials of orthopedics in today's busy hospital and outpatient settings. Concise chapters provide the basic knowledge that all orthopedic surgery residents, medical students, and supporting staff must know to handle the full range of conditions, injuries, and diseases for patients in the operating room and emergency department. Included are essentials of musculoskeletal anatomy, physical examination, orthopedic emergencies, and emergency room consults, including care for fractures, dislocations, bone/joint infections, and spinal cord injuries. Additional chapters cover operative room basics, such as patient positioning, prepping, and draping, and common orthopedic techniques, such as splinting, joint aspiration, and regional blocks. By compiling information commonly passed down from senior to junior surgeon, the authors have distilled a wide range of orthopedic fundamentals into one easy-to-read book.

Abstract
This book has been written step wise by enumerating various aspects of the importance of clinical examination derived by laying one's hands on the affected part. By a thorough clinical examination, it can help an individual to arrive at a tentative differential diagnosis of the condition and hence help in investigating the same by numerous tests which are relevant to the given condition. The manner in which a given case is handled in this way is far more important than the diagnosis of the condition and this feature comes with practicing the same many times. It is a must for anyone embarking in life on Orthopedics as a career.

Abstract
Global Orthopedics: Caring for Musculoskeletal Conditions and Injuries in Austere Settings was conceived and written to be a unique reference for surgeons working in resource-limited environments. The first sections provide historical background, global public health perspectives of orthopedics, the role of culture, and a broad discussion of non-surgical and non-orthopedic clinical topics that are rarely encountered in high-resource settings but that affect orthopedic care. Adult and pediatric trauma are presented in an anatomical format for easy reference, with a focus on the natural history and the best treatment methods within existing limitations. The chapters on musculoskeletal infections provide a wealth of knowledge about these common debilitating conditions that is unavailable in any other single modern text. The non-infectious pediatric conditions section has been written for the non-specialist to handle selected developmental and early childhood orthopedic problems commonly seen in low-resource settings. Detailed chapters on reconstruction surgery, tumor management, amputations, and the orthopedic needs in the face of conflicts and natural disasters round out the text.

In recent years, mini-invasive surgery has become increasingly important for reducing the risk of infection and minimizing blood loss and volume of implants. Hip surgery requires small incisions, which make the use of the appropriate equipment and an extensive knowledge of the anatomy of the region essential. Mini-invasive surgery requires the surgeon to consider the indications for surgery for each patient he treats and to know the exact loco-regional anatomy for that patient. Methods must be …

Abstract
In recent years, mini-invasive surgery has become increasingly important for reducing the risk of infection and minimizing blood loss and volume of implants. Hip surgery requires small incisions, which make the use of the appropriate equipment and an extensive knowledge of the anatomy of the region essential. Mini-invasive surgery requires the surgeon to consider the indications for surgery for each patient he treats and to know the exact loco-regional anatomy for that patient. Methods must be very precise and warrant visual explanations to help teach young surgeons.

Abstract
This book is a practical, step-by-step guide to orthopedic examination and diagnosis. The author explains a systematic classification of clinical findings that has proven very useful in diagnosing orthopedic disorders in daily routine. The approach to examination begins with a checklist covering the complete patient history, including subjective descriptions of complaints. This is followed by a stepwise approach to physical examination of the patient and collection of clinical findings. Photographs and illustrations clearly depict the necessary examination techniques. The main symptoms are then determined from the patient history and clinical findings, leading to a diagnosis. An overview of all relevant orthopedic conditions for each region of the body facilitates differential diagnosis and thereby completes the examination findings. This book will be of particular value for new residents in orthopedics and trauma but will also be useful for the experienced physician as a means of refreshing knowledge or as a reference.

Abstract
From a reassessment of osteoporosis to contributing factors, clinical applications of antiosteoporotic agents, and rehabilitation, this book examines various aspects of the disease and its treatment. Edited and written from an orthopedic perspective, it approaches osteoporosis as both a metabolic disease and a locomotive syndrome. As orthopedic surgeons in Japan are responsible for pharmacotherapy, surgery, and pain control, the authors pursue a comprehensive approach, focusing especially on the effect on muscles and on fracture operation rather than expanding the scope to bone density. Osteoporosis in Orthopedics provides extensive content and insights for clinicians, researchers, medical students, and post-docs specializing in osteoporosis. It also offers a valuable resource for orthopedic and spine surgeons who need extensive knowledge of osteoporosis and bone metabolism in the context of patient care.
