Features: With the continuous reporting and verification of the excellent medium- and long-term effects of artificial joint replacement surgery over the past decade, this technology is increasingly being accepted by domestic orthopedic surgeons. Artificial joint replacement has become an important treatment method for joint diseases. Surgical techniques and perioperative management directly affect treatment outcomes, and orthopedic surgeons must pay attention to every detail of the surgical procedure. New technologies, instruments, and surgical approaches are constantly emerging, requiring orthopedic surgeons to continuously update their knowledge. In light of this, the authors, with clinical practice as the starting point, reviewed a large number of domestic and international literature and combined their decades of clinical experience to timely release this book. The book consists of 51 chapters, approximately 1.4 million words, and over 1,100 illustrations, divided into two parts: the General Part introduces background knowledge closely related to joint replacement surgery, such as prosthesis materials, bone grafting, loosening and wear debris, and blood transfusion techniques; the Specific Part focuses on different joints as independent chapters, briefly introducing functional anatomy and biomechanics, emphasizing joint replacement surgical techniques, key points for prosthesis selection, various surgical principles and their advantages and disadvantages, and the management principles of common postoperative complications. New surgical methods from recent years have been added in relevant chapters. To help readers quickly grasp the key points of surgical techniques, the authors have inserted numerous clear and concise illustrations into the main text of surgical procedures. The book is characterized by being concise, easy to understand, and highly practical. It is a reference book for orthopedic surgeons and joint surgeons.
