Synopsis: This book offers a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to a selection of tried-and-tested arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgical procedures for treating pathologic conditions of the elbow. With the help of numerous figures, it explores in detail the elbow anatomy and biomechanics and provides a step-by-step guide to each surgical procedure – from simple diagnostics to complex reconstructions. Further, sharing the authors’ experience gained in their daily medical practice the book discusses borderline indications as well as potential complications, such as infection management – a topic that is rarely addressed. Intended primarily for arthroscopic surgeons interested in the field of elbow repair, this exhaustive guide is also a valuable resource for residents and elbow specialists.
