Edited by Mirzayan (orthopaedic surgery, Keck School of Medicine, U. of Southern California) this medical text begins with a description of the normal anatomy and function of human hyaline cartilage and its response to injury. It then discusses diagnosis, imaging, nonoperative and operative management, including surgical techniques for reparative and restorative procedures. Joint specific treatments are provided for the shoulder, elbow, knee, and ankle. Finally future directions in gene therapy, hyaluronian-based autologous chondrocyte implantation, and treatment of cartilage injury in the athlete are discussed. The volume is illustrated with black and white photographs and drawings, along with a handful of color plates. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
