Through four outstanding editions, this highly regarded text has provided a clear, surgeon’s-point of view of

orthopaedic anatomy using easy-to-follow descriptions accompanied by hundreds of superb, full-color

highly relevant anatomic approach that has become increasingly important as approaches become smaller.

Designed to increase your anatomic knowledge, increase safety, and improve patient outcomes, this updated

resource is a must-have reference for today’s orthopaedic surgeon.
