Rezensionen
"The book is clearly aimed at practicing surgeons, but it will also be very helpful to residents in both podiatric and orthopedic surgery. Students in both fields will find the book useful to further their understanding of a complicated subject and expose them to the breadth of this condition. ... this book is a worthy addition." (Martin C. Yorath, Doody's Book Reviews, May 24, 2019)
