Master Techniques in Orthopaedic Surgery: The Spine

This acclaimed volume of the Master Techniques in Orthopaedic Surgery series is now in its completely revised and updated second edition.

The world’s foremost spine surgeons describe their preferred techniques in step-by-step detail, explain the indications and contraindications, identify pitfalls and potential complications, and offer pearls and tips for improving results.

A new editor, Thomas A. Zdeblick—an eminent leader in the surgical treatment of spinal disorders—has joined Dr. Bradford for this second edition. Many chapters have been rewritten by new contributing authors who are today’s top experts in spine surgery. New chapters cover recently developed techniques such as odontoid fixation and microdiscectomy, as well as new instrumentation such as anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) cages and posterior hook/rod constructs.
