Editorial Reviews
Review
From the book reviews:
“This is both a textbook and an atlas of hip pathologies, injuries, dislocations, and fractures. … The strength of this book is the clinical and operative correlations. I recommend this book to orthopaedic residents, fellows, staff, and students.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, October, 2014)
“This book will be welcomed by all surgeons currently performing hip arthroscopy and all residents and fellows developing their skills. … It is a wonderful, efficient presentation of the entire gamut of hip arthroscopy edited by one of the most trusted spokesman in the field who has gathered an impressive group of contributors from around the world. … should be in every medical library, not only because it is an update, but also because it is the go-to book in hip arthroscopy.” (Mark R. Hutchinson, Doody’s Review Service, January, 2013)
