Advances in Small Animal Total Joint Replacement [PDF ebook] 

Advances in Small Animal Total Joint Replacement provides
an up-to-date, comprehensive examination of joint replacement in
veterinary surgery. Part of the Advances in Veterinary
Surgery series copublished with the ACVS Foundation, the book
presents an evidence-based, multi-system examination of the current
state of hip, knee, and elbow replacement in dogs and cats,
including information on biomechanics and biomaterials not found in
other sources. Written by an international group of experts,
the book offers guidance on the history, indications,
contraindications, clinical procedures, and a review of the current
literature for these surgical techniques.

Focusing on replacement of the hip, knee, and elbow, the book
also covers disc, shoulder, carpus, and tarsus replacement, as well
as information on the development of custom prostheses. Each
section incorporates information on potential complications and
outcomes assessment. Advances in Small Animal Total Joint
Replacement is an unparalleled repository of information for
veterinary surgeons, residents, and practitioners with an interest
in these procedures.
