      À la suite de l’ouvrage Chirurgie du genou paru en 2007, ce traité décrit l’ensemble des techniques utilisées en chirurgie du genou. La chirurgie de première intention s’étoffe grâce à l’analyse de cas plus rares (pathologies sportives et dégénératives, pathologies de l’appareil extenseur). Le chirurgien trouvera options et solutions aux défis posés par des interventions plus rares et plus difficiles. L’examen clinique, la préparation et l’installation du patient, les voies d’abord, les temps opératoires et techniques chirurgicales, les suites postopératoires et enfin les complications sont largement traités dans cet ouvrage exhaustif et enrichi par l’apport de contributeurs issus de l’école Lyonnaise de chirurgie du genou. Avec plus de 900 clichés opératoires, radiologiques et de dessins chirurgicaux d’une qualité exceptionnelle, ce traité apparaît comme un outil indispensable destiné aux chirurgiens orthopédistes en formation ou souhaitant perfectionner leur spécialisation autour du genou.
