Book excerpt: Consisting of case studies contributed by both domestic and international leaders in the field, this second edition of Limb Lengthening and Reconstruction: A Case-Based Atlas remains an invaluable resource for all orthopedic surgeons and researchers and practitioners of limb lengthening, deformity correction and the Ilizarov method. Comprehensive yet accessible, it is sensibly divided into dedicated sections on pediatrics, foot and ankle, trauma and post-traumatic reconstruction, adult deformity, tumor and upper extremity interventions. Each of the more than 450 unique cases includes color photographs and radiographs from before, during and after surgery, and follow a consistent chapter structure that outlines a brief clinical history of the case, preoperative problem list, treatment strategy, basic principles, technical pearls and how to avoid and manage complications and subsequent problems. Suggested readings round out each case. A comprehensive presentation of techniques is featured, including external fixation, internal fixation, combination approaches, fully implantable limb lengthening nails, various techniques of bone transport for skeletal defects, and osseointegration limb replacement surgery. This case-based approach is a time-tested, efficient and thorough way to learn this exciting new frontier in orthopedic surgery.
