Reviews
From the reviews:
"This book edited by two prominent knee surgeons provides an update on revision knee anthroplasty, along 27 chapters written by a total of 42 contributors. … To the interested surgeon, this book is a delight to read, and he will definitely find a number of technical hints for difficult situations he may encounter. … every senior trainee and every surgeon involved in knee anthroplasty will find it of interest." (R. Lemaire, Acta Orthopaedica Belgica, Vol. 72 (1), 2006)
"A book which presents a contemporary and comprehensive review of revision knee anthroplasty. … While there are several books on revision knee anthroplasty on the market, I would highly recommend this volume for its clarity of illustration, its choice of authors and the way in which they have applied their wide knowledge and expertise to the various topics. … With increasing number of patients requiring revision knee surgery this type of book is to be highly valued." (G. S. E. Dowd, Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Vol. 87 (12), 2005)
"The revision surgery of knee prostheses became a considerable share of the activity of the orthopaedic surgeons … . it is about a demanding and readily complex surgery requiring a solid experiment. … The iconography, readily color, is superb. The bibliography is very complete, primarily anglosaxone. It is about an undeniable success." (Laurent Balabaud, European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology, Vol. 19, 2009)
