Description
The molecular biology and mechanical properties of tendon/ligament healing and soft tissue (tendon/ligament/capsular tissues) to bone is a vital aspect of many surgical disciplines. Recent advances in techniques, both surgical and experimental, have provided great insight into new techniques, mechanisms of healing and new strategies for augmentation and repair. This text provides a comprehensive examination of some of the most important scientific and clinically relevant topics in ligament/tendon and capsular biology, surgical reconstruction and biomechanics today. This book sets the standard of excellence in these fields and will prove a valuable resource for postgraduate research, resident training, and clinical understanding.
