About this title

Review:

"Line drawings showing surgical anatomy and surgical steps for each procedure are very well done. Information is presented using the bullet format with phrases or brief sentences." "The book represents one in a series on orthopedic topics. The use of CPT and ICD-9 codes for billing purposes makes the book more useful, especially for the medical office staff who can now associate a code with a brief description of the procedure. Physicians are strongly advised to purchase this book for their staff." (Doody's 2003-01-16)
