Peripheral nerve issues are potential sequalae of orthopedic
surgery, even after cases in which technically excellent surgery
was performed. These injuries can impede the expected recovery of
function after the primary surgery. Given the manifold challenges
associated with recovery of peripheral nerve injuries, this book is
designed as a multidisciplinary guide to the diagnosis,
prognostication and treatment of peripheral nerve issues after
common orthopedic surgeries. Beginning with an overview of nerve
compression, injury and regeneration, as well as a presentation of
the current diagnostic and imaging modalities for peripheral nerve
injuries, this unique text is organized by anatomic region and by
type of procedure performed. Topics covered include shoulder and
elbow arthroplasty and arthroscopy, fractures of the hand and
wrist, hip preservation surgery, total knee replacement, open
surgery of the foot and ankle, lumbosacral myeloradiculopathy, and
more. Each chapter is authored by both a subspecialty surgeon who
routinely performs the surgeries described and a subspecialized
hand/peripheral nerve surgeon with experience in evaluating and
treating nerve issues after that particular injury. Emphasis is
placed on multidisciplinary team approaches, patient counseling,
and technical aspects of surgical treatment. Generously illustrated
and written by experts in the field, Peripheral Nerve Issues after
Orthopedic Surgery is a truly interdisciplinary resource for
orthopedic, plastic, hand and trauma surgeons, physiatrists,
trainees, and all professionals evaluating and managing
postoperative peripheral nerve issues.
