Summary: This richly illustrated atlas is entirely devoted to the most modern surgical techniques of the elbow, offering a comprehensive, step-by-step and detailed examination of all the technical aspects of the surgical exposure of this joint. With the help of over 100 original drawings and photographs, it offers readers a unique understanding of elbow anatomy and surgical approaches, providing precise indications and surgical timing for clinical practice. An entire section focuses on the surgical management of the most common diseases of the elbow: the surgical exposures are related to pathologies affecting the lateral medial, anterior and posterior compartments of the elbow. This atlas will be of great value both to trainees and to specialists who manage disorders of the elbow, including orthopedic surgeons, traumatologists, and sports physicians, as well as anatomists.
