Manual of Orthopaedic Surgery for Spasticity

An operative manual providing the orthopedic surgeon with a systematic, clearly illustrated guide to the surgical correction of spastic limb deformities. The techniques are applicable to individuals with varied causes of spasticity. Each procedure follows the same format and presents the clinical problem, the rationale for surgery, the operative technique, and postoperative care. The surgical procedures are organized to distinguish between those intended to improve limb function and those where the goal is to correct contractures. 9.5x7.75" Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
