Surgical orthopedic procedures such as hip replacements, arthroscopy or knee replacements are surrounded by pre- and post-operative complications, and there are varying different methods for the procedures themselves. This book, for the first time, brings together the best evidence for treatments as well as any complications. Not only does it cover the evidence base for orthopedic surgery, but also orthopedic conditions requiring medical treatment, and pediatric orthopedics. Using the approved EBM methodology, and edited by teachers of evidence-based medicine, this is a genuine EBM textbook for all orthopedic specialists and trainees.

Dive into the intricate realm of osteoporosis through the lens of biomechanics with Biomechanical Insights into Osteoporosis. This pioneering volume offers a comprehensive exploration of this debilitating condition, providing an in-depth understanding of its biomechanical foundations and implications. Osteoporosis, characterized by reduced bone mineral density and heightened susceptibility to fractures, stands as a global health challenge. This book brings together leading experts in the field, who rigorously analyze the multifaceted aspects of osteoporosis, offering invaluable knowledge for researchers, clinicians, and students alike. Key Highlights: •Biomechanical Foundations: Gain profound insights into the biomechanical basis of bone fractures and fracture osteosynthesis in small animals. Explore the fundamental principles that shape our understanding of osteoporotic biomechanics. •Non-Glucocorticoid Drug-Induced Osteoporosis: Investigate the mechanisms, risk factors, and therapeutic approaches for osteoporosis induced by medications other than glucocorticoids. •Vascular Remodeling and Bone Destruction: Discover the common pathogenetic links between vascular remodeling and bone tissue destruction in postmenopausal women with arterial hypertension. This holistic perspective illuminates bone health dynamics. •Genetic Targets and Future Directions: Explore promising genetic targets that have the potential to revolutionize osteoporosis treatment. Get a glimpse into the future of research and treatment strategies. •Biomarkers and Metabolism: Delve into the latest research progress surrounding bone mineral density and bone metabolism biomarkers, offering valuable insights into diagnostics and monitoring. •Impact of Diseases and Medical Treatments: Understand the intricate interplay between diseases and medical treatments on bone mineral density. Gain a comprehensive understanding of how various factors influence skeletal health. This book represents a significant milestone in deciphering the complexities of osteoporosis from a biomechanical perspective. Join us in this scientific journey to explore the fascinating facets of osteoporosis. Biomechanical Insights into Osteoporosis is an essential resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this critical health issue and the biomechanical aspects that underlie it.

There has been very rapid development in computing in recent years and this is now a general trend in the field of orthopedics. In orthopedic trauma, there is much enthusiasm surrounding the use of surgical navigation in musculoskeletal trauma. In light of these developments, the successful first edition of this book has been revised and updated including new information to the original chapter on CAOS (computer-aided orthopedic surgery) and an additional chapter on osteoporosis. A chapter on hip fracture rehabilitation has also become necessary. This updated book provides an excellent resource in trauma for orthopedic residents around the world.

This textbook offers a comprehensive view of all aspects of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO). The second expanded edition includes the expert knowledge of AO surgeons from all around the world. It not only provides basic concepts and the latest clinical and basic scientific research, but guides the interested surgeon through the crucial steps of MIPO application in the different anatomical regions. Enhanced by clear photographs, x-rays, MRls, CT scans, and detailed illustrations, the book comprises two sections: Section 1, Principles, covers the principles of MIPO surgery as well as education in MIPO. Section 2, Cases, encompasses all anatomical regions. For each region there is a comprehensive introduction covering general aspects of MIPO techniques regarding indications, preoperative planning, and positioning, before indirect and direct reduction and fixation techniques are presented. Case examples then allow the reader to follow each procedure in a thorough, step-by-step manner. Additional chapters on pediatric and fragility fractures, special indications, and implant removal conclude this second section. The main concept behind the MIPO technique is to deal with soft tissue and bone in a way that does not add additional trauma to the fracture site. The bone must be accessed through soft-tissue windows away from the fracture site. Direct reduction maneuvers, if needed, should be executed to leave only small footprints at the fracture area and reduce disturbance of fracture healing.
