Reviews

From the reviews: The authors have done an admirable job of presenting a collection of techniques and approaches for minimally invasive knee arthroplasty. This 200 page handbook provides an efficient review of the current state of the art in this field and it would be a nice addition to the libraries of adult reconstructive surgeons who want to expand their portfolios to minimally invasive techniques.
