Hip Joint in Adults

Advances and Developments

Herausgeber: Iyer, K. Mohan

Beschreibung

This book gives details of how surgery of the hip joint has evolved around the world. The 22 original chapters are written by experienced consultants, including Drs. John O'Donnell (Melbourne, Australia), Manfred Krieger and Ilan Elias (Frankfurt, Germany), and Nicholas Goddard (London, U.K.). The book focuses on several important topics such as the direct anterior approach to the hip joint, setup of a total hip in a day, early experiences in outpatient hip surgery, advances in short-stem total hip arthroplasty, hemophilic hip joint arthropathy, mesenchymal stem cell treatment of cartilage lesions in the hip over the next few decades, and minimally invasive surgery of the hip joint.

Autor

Dr K. Mohan Iyer did his MCPS (1971) from the College of Physicians and Surgeons, Mumbai, India; MBBS (1971) from the University of Mumbai; D'Orth. and FCPS Orth. (1975) from the College of Physicians and Surgeons; MS Orth. (1978) from the University of Mumbai; and M. Ch. Orth. (1981) from the University of Liverpool, UK. During this time, he wrote three theses on fractures of the patella, excision arthroplasty of the elbow, and excision of the trapezium for carpometacarpal arthritis of the thumb. From 1971 to 1972, Dr Iyer was with K.E.M. Hospital, Mumbai, India, on a resident-rotating internship. His other nonorthopaedic appointments were as resident house surgeon in general surgery (1973-1974), K.E.M. Hospital, and as SHO (1976), East Birmingham Hospital, UK. His orthopaedic appointments were as resident house surgeon in orthopaedics (1973) and resident registrar orthopaedics (teaching post; 1974-1976), K.E.M. Hospital, and as registrar in orthopaedics (1976-1977), Dryburn Hospital, Durham, UK, in addition to numerous other locum consultant and specialist registrar jobs. Dr Iyer has presented numerous papers at state, national, and international conferences in Singapore and Bangkok. He was in charge of the teaching program in orthopaedics for undergraduate students and an examiner for the MBBS degree at the University of Bangalore, India. He has also carried out a wide range of operative work on all kinds of major fractures, as well as arthroscopy of the knee, spinal surgery, and elbow and total hip replacements, and has published numerous articles and book chapters. He has done original research work, as can be seen on his website kmohaniyer.com, and has been instrumental in devising a modified posterior approach to the hip joint, which he has been following from 1981 till today.
