Features: This book is a collaborative effort between anatomists and clinical orthopedic surgeons, drawing upon extensive domestic and international references on surgical approaches and applied anatomy, as well as the authors' years of research and practical experience. It elucidates the general principles of orthopedic surgical approaches from an anatomical perspective, with a focus on commonly used orthopedic surgical approaches and their closely related applied anatomy. Anatomical content less relevant to surgical approaches is simplified or omitted to ensure conciseness, highlight key points, and facilitate understanding and mastery. This book serves as a guide for orthopedic surgery and can be used as a professional reference for orthopedic surgeons, as well as for general surgeons, plastic surgeons, anatomy instructors, and medical students. The book is divided into eleven chapters, organized by anatomical regions, discussing the distribution of important structures, the hierarchical steps of surgical approaches, and their related applied anatomy. In terms of content, it strives for innovation, closely linking theory with practice while emphasizing clinical applicability. New content such as "nerve interfaces," "easily injured structures or danger zones," and "surgical expansion of exposure" is highlighted in each chapter. In terms of writing style, the book balances text and illustrations to aid readers in learning, mastering, and applying the material. The illustrations reference relevant domestic and international and, and all anatomical terminology follows the 1982 edition of "Terminology of Human Anatomy of China."
