Klappentext zu „The ACL Handbook “
ACL injuries affect the lives of hundreds of thousands of people each year. While ACL reconstruction via tendon graft is able to restore gross stability to the knee, the procedure is far from a perfect treatment. Challenges such as high failure rates in adolescent athletes and the inability to slow the accelerated progression of arthritis after an ACL rupture, for example, drive interest in developing new methods of treatment. The ACL Handbook takes a complete view of ACL injuries and treatments, discussing:-Mechanics of the normal ACL and knee
-The body s response to ACL injury
-Deficiencies of that biological response which prevent ACL injuries from healing spontaneously
-Development of new treatment methods to overcome these deficiencies
Ideal for orthopedists, sports medicine physicians, and physical therapists, The ACL Handbook is a unique resource for information on the basic and applied science of ACL injury, repair, and the future of treatment.
