Book SynopsisThis book explores the intricate connections that link the current digitalization of manufacturing to our daily lives and identities as members of highly technologized societies.Based on extensive research on the prosthetics industry in Germany, the US, Canada, and Haiti, the author analyzes the sociomaterial construction of users, by demonstrating the ways in which the introduction of 3D printing changes how artificial limbs are designed, manufactured, distributed, and used. Critically examining the capacity of digital technologies to afford greater diversity of user roles, enable the inclusion of marginalized groups, and increase user participation in the innovation process, the author presents a theory of user construction that sheds light on the dynamic relationship between industrial digitalization and the future of use.An empirically grounded and conceptually informed study, The Sociomaterial Construction of Users will appeal to researchers in the fields of sociology, science and technology studies, and organization studies, as well as readers interested in 3D printing and the digitalization of society.

Book SynopsisIn keeping with the aims of other books in this Series the Editors have concentrated on the practical aspects of management -in this case of the urinary tract in patients with spinal cord injury. It is well accepted that the management of such patients is best done by those with special experience in this field. Nevertheless, it is essential that urologists should be well informed on matters relating to the neuropathic urinary tract since not all patients will be managed in special centres and, whether their problems are acute or chronic, the wrong clinical decision can lead them into a lifetime of problems. The plan of this book is directed towards examining particular problems and providing definitive answers. Even in this enlightened age of medical progress there are many clinical situations where there is often a choice of treatment. Readers of this Series will be aware that, Table of Contents1 General Considerations in the Management of the Urinary Tract.- 2 Immediate Management of the Inability to Void.- 3 A Practical Approach to Urodynamic Evaluation.- 4 Difficulty with Voiding or Acute Urinary Retention Having Previously Voided Satisfactorily.- 5 Upper Urinary Tract Dilatation and Stones.- 6 Urinary Tract Infection.- 7 Sexual and Fertility Concerns: Surgical Considerations.- 8 Anaesthesia.- 9 Innovations and Future Possibilities.

Book SynopsisFunctionally stable internal fixation is of particular relevance to maxillo­ facial surgery, because it obviates the discomforts and inconveniences of intermaxillary fixation. Given the biomechanics and biophysics of the skeletal system, the true im­ mobilization of bone can be achieved only through highly technical means. Willenegger speaks of an "advanced school" of bone surgery which, when fully realized, will enable excellent results to be achieved even in the most difficult fractures. To accomplish this goal, ongoing refinements are needed in surgical methods and technology. Advancing the state of operative tech­ nique has been a central concern of the Association for the Study of Inter­ nal Fixation since its establishment 25 years ago. For this reason, a major priority of the AOI ASIF has been to develop its own surgical instrumen­ tation. With the help of technical commissions comprised of experts from medi­ cine, research and manufacturing, the AOI ASIF has been able to develop and successfully test a line of surgical instruments whose trademark is known and respected the world over. For every specialty in traumatology and orthopaedics, including maxillofacial surgery, the AOIASIF has devel­ oped both a basic and a special instrument set designed to meet specific anatomic requirements.Table of Contents1 General Guidelines for Maxillofacial Internal Fixation.- 1.1 Checklist of General Measures in the Management of Maxillofacial Trauma.- 1.1.1 Initial Management.- 1.1.2 Preparation of the Patient on Admission.- 1.1.3 Postoperative Care.- 1.2 Checklist of General Measures in Orthognathic Maxillofacial Surgery.- 1.2.1 Preoperative Planning and Treatment.- 1.2.2 Preparation of the Patient on Admission.- 1.2.3 Postoperative Care.- 1.3 General Preparations in the Operating Room.- 1.3.1 Recommended Locations of Personnel and Equipment.- 1.3.2 Preparation of Materials.- 1.4 Nomenclature.- 1.4.1 Anatomy of the Skull.- 1.4.2 Anatomy of the Mandible.- 1.4.3 Anatomy of the Dentition.- 1.4.4 Various Drill Bits and Burrs.- 2 Internal Fixation of the Mandible.- 2.1 Indications.- 2.2 Goals.- 2.3 Timing.- 2.4 Diagnosis.- 2.5 Preparation of the Patient on Admission.- 2.6 Preoperative Preparation of the Patient.- 2.7 Instruments and Equipment to be Prepared.- 2.8 Table Setups for Internal Fixation of the Mandible.- 2.8.1 Instruments for Splinting.- 2.8.2 Instruments for Internal Fixation of the Mandible (1st Table).- 2.8.3 Instruments for Internal Fixation of the Mandible (2nd Table).- 2.8.4 Implants for Mandibular Reconstructions.- 2.9 Examples of the Internal Fixation of Various Mandibular Fractures.- 2.10 Operative Procedure.- 2.11 Postoperative Care.- 3 Surgical Treatment of Midfacial Fractures.- 3.1 Indications.- 3.2 Goals.- 3.3 Timing.- 3.4 Diagnosis.- 3.5 Preparation of the Patient on Admission.- 3.6 Preoperative Preparation of the Patient.- 3.7 Instruments and Equipment to be Prepared.- 3.8 Table Setups for Midfacial Fractures.- 3.8.1 Instruments for Splinting.- 3.8.2 Instruments for Internal Fixation of the Maxilla.- 3.8.3 Instruments for Internal Fixation of the Orbit.- 3.8.4 Cranio Fixateur Externe.- 3.9 Use of the Cranio Fixateur Externe for Various Midfacial Fractures.- 3.10 Operative Procedure.- 3.11 Postoperative Care.- 4 Orthognathic Maxillofacial Surgery.- 4.1 Indications.- 4.2 Principle and Goals.- 4.3 Workup Materials that are Taken into Surgery.- 4.4 Preparation of the Patient on the Day Before Surgery.- 4.5 Preoperative Preparation of the Patient.- 4.6 Instruments and Equipment to be Prepared 40.- 4.7 Table Setups for Orthognathic Maxillofacial Surgery.- 4.7.1 Instruments for Splinting.- 4.7.2 Instruments for Orthognathic Maxillofacial Surgery (1st Table).- 4.7.3 Instruments for Orthognathic Maxillofacial Surgery (2nd Table).- 4.7.4 Instruments for Internal Fixation of the Orbit.- 4.7.5 Instruments for Internal Fixation of the Maxilla.- 4.7.6 Cranio Fixateur Externe.- 4.8 Examples of Various Osteotomies.- 4.8.1 Correction Within the Dental Arch.- 4.8.2 Correction Outside the Dental Arch.- 4.9 Operative Procedure.- 4.9.1 Further Procedure for a Segmental Osteotomy.- 4.9.2 Further Procedure for Sagittal Splitting.- 4.9.3 Further Procedure for a Le Fort I Osteotomy.- 4.10 Postoperative Care.- 5 AO/ASIF Instruments for Maxillofacial Bone Surgery.- 5.1 Instruments for 2.7-mm dia.

Book SynopsisThis richly illustrated book provides a comprehensive survey of the growing role of medical imaging studies in the detection, staging, grading, tissue characterization, and post-treatment follow-up of soft tissue tumors. For each tumor group, imaging findings are correlated with clinical, epidemiologic, and histologic data. The relative merits and indications of various imaging modalities are discussed and compared. Particular emphasis is placed on MRI because of its unique contrast resolution and multiplanar imaging capabilities. This third, revised and updated edition includes new chapters on genetics and molecular biology and on pathology of soft tissue tumors, with respect to the new World Health Organization (WHO) classification of soft tissue tumors. It aims to serve both as a systematic, descriptive textbook and as a rich pictorial database of soft tissue masses.

Book SynopsisThe contents of this book are based almost exclusively on purely anatomical researches. These were stimulated by questions posed in clinical practice. The results are directed to practicing surgeons. Their chronological sequence leads to a step by step development of theoretical bases and to a progressive rejection of old conceptions. Especially in the field of orthopaedic surgery, a responsible attitude is possible neither without solid anatomical knowledge, nor without an idea of functional relationships. W. Roux had already demonstrated this and he wanted his works of functional anatomy to be considered from this point of view. He above all preoccupied himself with a uniform theory of functional adaptation. Thus it is understandable that the theories ofRoux formed the basis from which to start. Our own researches seemed at first to corroborate the ideas of Roux, at least in part. This is still evident in the monograph concerning fractures of the femoral neck. Later it appeared that ST. KROMPECHER had made a step forwards in the matter of chondrogenesis when he abandoned the shear theory postulated by Roux and held that compression was the only effective stimulus for the forma­ tion of cartilage. The research concerning the healing of fractures relies partly on the theory of KROMPECHER which was new at that time. But ultimately more and more discoveries could no longer be explained by this conception which was only slightly different from the older theories (1. WOLF, W. Roux, W.Table of Contents1.

Book SynopsisThe definitive book on reverse shoulder arthroplasty from leading orthopaedic shoulder surgeons This masterful book from top experts provides clinical insights on reverse shoulder arthroplasty gleaned from hands-on refinement of shoulder replacement techniques. Years of significant biomechanical and clinical research yielded invaluable knowledge that led to important improvements in functional outcome and implant durability. Among these refinements were stronger polyethylene derivatives, better ingrowth technology, and improved connection devices. As the durability and longevity of implant technology increased, younger active patients became suitable candidates for this procedure. In fact, RSA has played a pivotal role in making shoulder arthroplasty the fastest growing implant technology. In the first two sections, the authors take the reader through the history and evolution of RSA, followed by step-by-step surgical techniques for specific injuries and conditions. The next three sections discuss past and recent outcomes, complications, and rehabilitation. The last section covers special considerations including patient specific instrumentation, convertible humeral and glenoid components, and the future potential of stemless humeral technology. Key Features The latest trends in patient-specific components, guide systems, and instrument design The use of RSA for rotator cuff repair, shoulder arthritis, and acute and complex fractures In-depth discussion of techniques to improve deltoid function, avoid impingement, and increase implant longevity Clinical pearls on how to recognize and handle complications that occur: instability, infection, scapular notching, component loosening, glenoid and humeral bone loss, and RSA failure High quality videos and 300 superb illustrations further delineate techniques This book is a practical resource that enables learning complex procedures, putting them into practice, and handling complications should they arise. It is an essential tool for all orthopaedic surgeons who treat shoulder conditions.Table of ContentsThe Basics 1. History of Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty 2.
