Foot and Ankle Surgery

Foot and Ankle Surgery: A Comprehensive Clinical Textbook - Principles, Techniques, and Evidence-Based Practice is a definitive, high-yield reference designed for orthopedic surgeons, podiatric surgeons, residents, fellows, and advanced trainees seeking mastery in modern foot and ankle surgery. This authoritative textbook delivers a complete, structured, and clinically focused approach to the diagnosis, surgical management, reconstruction, and rehabilitation of foot and ankle disorders.

Covering the full spectrum of foot and ankle pathology, biomechanics, trauma, deformity correction, arthroscopy, arthroplasty, and reconstructive surgery, this textbook bridges foundational science with advanced operative techniques and current evidence-based practice. It is designed to support both surgical training and clinical decision-making in high-volume orthopedic and podiatric settings.

The textbook then delivers a comprehensive, procedure-based exploration of common and complex conditions including:

• Hallux valgus and lesser toe deformities

• Hallux rigidus and first MTP joint degeneration

• Ankle instability and ligament reconstruction (Broström techniques and syndesmotic stabilization)

• Achilles tendon disorders and complex reconstruction

• Peroneal tendon pathology and instability

• Adult-acquired flatfoot deformity and posterior tibial tendon dysfunction

• Cavus foot deformity and neurological correction strategies

• Ankle arthroscopy and osteochondral lesion management

• Ankle arthritis and total ankle replacement

• Hindfoot and midfoot arthrodesis techniques
