Download and read online ebook Biomechanics of the Hip write by Paul G. J. Maquet. This book was released on 1985. Biomechanics of the Hip available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Dr. MAQUET, the foremost disciple of Professor PAUWELS' and the orthopae dic heir to the PAUWELS' concepts of osteotomy of the hip for arthritis, has assembled in this one book the strongest and most lucid contemporary statement of the principles and practice of this very important school of hip surgery. Professor PAUWELS' contributions to the understanding of the biomechanics of the hip and to the concepts and execution of osteotomy of the hip for arthritis are outstanding and timeless. With clarity, Dr. MAQUET articulates this position and refines it further in the light of his own investiga tion. While other investigators, of course, differ on individual concepts or princi ples in this book or disagree with specific positions, assumptions, or conclu sions, it is clear to all that this book is a benchmark work. Dr. MAQUET, as Professor PAUWELS always did, illustrates his text lavishly with beautiful examples of individual cases illuminating the principles ad vanced. But in addition, he has gone further and presents long-term follow-up data, quantifying the results of these surgical precepts as experienced in his own practice. It is a work that has been long sought and is richly received. Boston, Massachusetts, 1984 WILLIAM H. HARRIS, M.D.

Orthopaedic surgery today is undergoing a phase of vara, pseudarthrosis of the neck of the femur, and osteo turbulent development. Once the essential aim of treatment arthritis, even in cases which up to now would usually have been considered incurable. consisted in restitution of anatomy by surgery in order to This atlas not only shows convincing results of such restore function. Various forms of alloplasty have recently become fashionable for the treatment of joint diseases. treatment. Above all, it gives interested clinicians a line to The main reason for this vogue is that restoration of follow and sets out precise indications for the practical normal anatomy improves function and alleviates pain steps of the operations. only in certain special instances. I am especially grateful to Professor B. Kummer who, as Alternatively, the implantation of artificial joints of an anatomist, acted as the devil's advocate, and subjected different types has been presented as the method of the new concepts in functional anatomy and biomechanics choice because the immediate results are often spectacular shown in the atlas to critical analysis.

In the first edition, published in 1976, Professor BOMBELLI demonstrated a clear alternative to total hip replacement that is also useful in cases of advanced osteoarthritis. Since then the number of osteotomies perfor med has reached 2500, which together with the longer follow-up of the original cases means that the author has significantly more experience with his new techniques. He has refined his previous concepts of the pathogenesis and treatment of osteoarthritis, and with the benefit of his experience has further clari fied the indications and contra-indications of valgus-extension and varus osteotomy. Valgus-extension osteotomy has been proven to be particu larly effective in cases with well-formed osteophytes and elliptical femoral heads. On the other hand, the indication for varus osteotomy has mostly been restricted to cases in which the femoral head is spherical. The role of CHIARI and SALTER pelvic osteotomies in those cases in which the coverage of the femoral head is insufficient is not neglected. Osteotomy is capable of complementing and accelerating the healing process, particularly in young patients in whom hip function is still well preserved and in whom there is early radiological evidence of sponta neous, osteophyte-dependent repair. Whenever feasible, pre-existing or anticipated leg length inequalities are adjusted intra-operatively, but when this is technically impossible a postoperative lift may be required.
