Surgical Repair and Reconstruction in Rheumatoid Disease

The focus in this text is on the management of rheumatoid arthritis from the orthopedic surgeon's point of view. Yet the authors keep in mind the total management of the patient, not just the surgical possibilities. Recommendations are made concerning various methods of treatment, and chapters on pathology and the position of the patient in society are included. The book is a practical aid for surgeons when deciding on a surgical regimen, for physicians when weighing for various treatment alternatives and for physiotherapists, occupational therapists and other paramedical disciplines as well as patients when looking for information on the effects of operative treatment in rheumatoid disease.Benjamin, A. is the author of 'Surgical Repair and Reconstruction in Rheumatoid Disease', published 1992 under ISBN 9783540197270 and ISBN 3540197273.
