ReviewsFrom the reviews: "This book on revision ACL surgery covers everything from preoperative planning to how to deal with tough and complex cases. ... While residents and fellows will benefit significantly from this book, it is clearly intended for reconstructive surgeons who are willing to take on the unique challenges of revision surgery. ... a worthwhile addition to academic orthopedic libraries and a must for surgeons who commonly perform these surgeries and wish to stay current on the more complex possibilities."

SynopsisThis practical guide to surgical repair of failed or compromised anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions reviews the basics of diagnosing a failed ACL reconstruction, imaging and preoperative planning and common causes of ACL reconstruction failures., Although anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has a high success rate, a substantial number of patients are left with unsatisfactory results.
