Master Techniques in Podiatric Surgery: The Foot & Ankle by Thomas J. Chang is a practical "how-to" guide to the most advanced and successful techniques for treating foot and ankle problems. The authors describe their preferred techniques in step-by-step detail, identify pitfalls and potential complications, and offer personal pearls and tips for improving results. The book is thoroughly illustrated with full-color, sequential, surgeon's-eye view intraoperative photographs and drawings demonstrating difficult surgical maneuvers. Each chapter focuses on a specific procedure and covers indications, contraindications, preoperative planning, surgical technique, postoperative management, and complications. A list of recommended readings appears at the end of each chapter.
