ACL Injury and Its Treatment

Beschreibung

This volume presents detailed information on surgically relevant anatomy and histology of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), biomechanics, diagnostics, and ACL reconstruction. In light of the growing body of evidence demonstrating the advantages of anatomic ACL reconstruction over traditional methods, there are also discussions of single anteromedial bundle reconstruction and anatomic ACL reconstruction with abundant descriptions of experimental and clinical studies. In addition, particular attention is given not only to techniques such as ACL augmentation, bone-patella tendon-bone reconstruction and computer-assisted navigation, but it also presents expert analysis of revision of ACL reconstruction, complications, and the future perspectives of ACL reconstruction. Edited by authoritative orthopedic surgeon from the Japanese Orthopaedic Society of Knee, Arthroscopy and Sports Medicine (JOSKAS), this book provides up-to-date information for orthopedic surgeons and physical therapistsspecializing in the ACL. The research evidence will broaden readers’ understanding and enable them to optimize outcomes for patients. As ACL rupture is a common injury especially for high-level athletes, it will also attract sports trainers and team physicians who are interested in a recent update on this field.

“This is a 360-degree reference regarding ACL injuries and treatment from basic science to clinical medicine and surgery. … The book is written for orthopedic surgeons with an interest in the ACL, but it also would be of interest to orthopedic surgeons in training, nonoperative sports medicine physicians, basic scientists, physical therapists, or any other healthcare professionals with an interest in the surgical treatment of ACL injuries.” (Scott A. Magnes, Doody's Book Reviews, January, 2017)
