Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides surgeons with a comprehensive collection of essays on conservative foot and ankle surgeries developed by the United States Sanitary Commission in response to the unprecedented number of foot and ankle injuries sustained during the US Civil War. The essays were penned by leading medical practitioners of the time and provide explicit instructions for a range of innovative procedures designed to allow preservation of the foot or ankle whenever possible â" representing an important evolution in amputation surgery. Covering topics from the amputation of single toes to excision of individual metatarsal bones, and more complex procedures such as Syme's, Pirogoff's, and Chopart's amputations, the book provides important insights into the surgical techniques and debates that were central to the development of orthopedic medicine, and remain highly relevant to this day. The text also includes comparative reviews of each procedure's mortality rates and the serviceability of the resulting stumps, giving surgeons the information they need to make informed decisions in the field.
