The purpose is to describe the correct use of the Ilizarov technique in combination with osteotomies for deformities. The authors call on their 30 years of experience to meet their objectives. The audience is primarily skeletal traumatologists, pediatric orthopedists, and general orthopedic surgeons and their trainees. ... The book under review represents an important and current contribution and is strongly recommended to those caring for patients with skeletal trauma and deformity.
