Atlas of Orthopedic Oncology Volume 1, Gebunden

Klappentext

This atlas provides a step-by-step guide to surgical procedures through high-quality labeled surgical images, describing the anatomical approaches for all regions of sarcoma management. The procedures depict surgical access progressing to dissection through the anatomical layers, with vital structures, major vessels, nerves, and other important structures clearly marked and labeled for a clear understanding of their correlation with the sarcoma prior to resection. This atlas describes both simple and complicated procedures, encompassing the varied gamut of surgical approaches and their modifications for sarcoma resection. It also describes various options for bone and joint reconstruction, advanced microsurgical techniques, and flap procedures. The cases illustrated in each chapter will help the reader better comprehend the surgical principles necessary for achieving oncological margins while optimizing function in the complex heterogeneity of sarcoma cases.

The book includes resection of soft tissue sarcomas for both the upper and lower limbs and applicable reconstructions. Pelvic sarcoma resections and reconstruction are described in detail, along with major amputations like forequarter amputation and external hemipelvectomy.

This book adds to the armamentarium of surgical procedures necessary for all orthopedic oncology surgeons. It serves as a valuable reference and guide for surgeons and trainees in orthopedic oncology, as well as plastic and reconstructive surgeons with an interest in limb salvage
