Abstract

The new edition of this step-by-step guide covers the entire spectrum of operative shoulder arthroscopy from initial operation room set-up through advanced reconstructive procedures. View all-new illustrations and apply the latest treatment options for Bankart repair, SLAP repair, and repair of a full range of rotator cuff lesions, along with strategies for stiff shoulders and osteoarthritis.  Whether you are a novice or an experienced shoulder surgeon, improve your technique with the expertise of Dr. Gartsman.

  • Emphasizes re-operative planning and associated outcome data to give you a scientific basis for treatment recommendations.
  • Provides revised content and new illustrations, with coverage of the latest instrumentation so you get a fresh, up-to-date approach to the subject matter.
  • Presents the most current scientific data on the treatment outcomes of specific conditions and techniques so you make the best-informed decisions.
  • Features two new chapters on Diagnostic Ultrasound and Suprascapular Nerve Release for state-of-the-art arthroscopic diagnostic and management tools, including arthroscopic Latarjet for recurrent dislocation.
