Reviews
From the book reviews:
“An excellent monograph on the treatment of osteocartilagenous fractures and their treatment with bony cylindrical transplants and/or cartilage grafts for the purpose of stabilizing both non-unions, fractures, and joint instabilities including anterior and posterior ligaments of the knee joint. … is appropriate to all orthopaedic, foot/ankle surgeons, those in training including residents/fellows in ORTHO and podiatric medicine. … this book supports research in bone, joint, and tendon reconstruction and places complete limb regrowth within reach of scientists in limb regeneration.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, March, 2015)

About the authors
After completing their medical studies, Klaus and Yvette Draenert were responsible for establishing the research department for cartilage and bone morphology under the chairman of Professor Maurice Edmond Müller at the University of Berne, and this unit went on to become a leading institute for interface and biomaterial research. In 1978, their research group accepted an assignment from the Technical University in Munich to develop Germany's leading research department in orthopaedics. In 1991, Klaus Draenert received his inauguration from the Technical University of Munich. The study group has received a variety of awards, including the John Charnley Award from the USA Hip Society (twice), the Nicolas Andry Award from the ABJS, and the coveted Theodor Nägeli Award from the Swiss and German Society of Surgeons. ZOW and Klaus and Yvette Draenert have trained forty transplantation centers in Germany which are fully equipped with instrumentation.
