    Summary: Knee ligament injuries are very common and are frequently sports related, although they may arise from trauma experienced during everyday activities. This book provides in-depth descriptions of the extra articular surgical techniques that may be employed when performing ligament reconstruction in patients with injuries involving the posterolateral and posteromedial corners of the knee. It is intended as a practical, how to manual that will be of value for both the trainee and the more experienced surgeon. Many of the techniques relate to the central pivot of the knee, i.e. the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments. For each technique, indications, presurgical planning, postsurgical follow-up and complications are discussed in addition to the surgical details. Numerous tips and pearls are provided and the techniques are clearly depicted in informative high-quality illustrations.

    The results of basic research of proliferation kinetics and pharmacokinetics as well as comparative clinical studies led to the development of therapeutic principles for malignant diseases. Thus polychemotherapy is to be preferred to monotherapy in most types of disease. To prevent primary resistance only those cytostatics should be combined which have been proved effective or could be expected to be effective individually. The relative cell cycle specificity of cytostatics should be taken into account by combination of drugs acting at different phases of the tumor cell cycle. The different growth behavior of tumor and normal tissues suggest the use of intermittent stoss therapy for the regeneration of normal tissue in the therapy-free interval.
