Editorial Reviews
Review
From the reviews:
“This is an in-depth and highly scientific review of computer-assisted and robotic surgery of the knee. … While most knee surgeons will find this book an interesting read, it will have the most impact on academics or surgeons trying to stay at the cutting edge of their specialty. … Fellows in adult reconstructive surgery and surgeons practicing adult reconstructive surgery will gain the most from it and find it most interesting. This is a unique offering dedicated to a very specialized area in orthopedic surgery.” (Mark R. Hutchinson, Doody’s Book Reviews, July, 2013)
