Operative Foot Surgery

This book presents a fresh approach to the clinical management of problems of the foot and ankle. Discussions stress the clinical implications, the decision-making process, when and when not to operate, and the rationales underlying "why and why not" decisions. Considerations relative to the selection of a procedure of choice are clearly presented. Operative procedures are supported by handsomely detailed line art. Discussions of the surgical techniques include appropriate anatomic references, intra-operative "pearls", cautions, and potential pitfalls in addition to the step-by-step narrative.
