Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book, a historical analysis of knee surgery, delves into the invention of knee excision by Park. Focused on the implementation of excision in military surgery, it delves into the skepticism it was originally met with. The author laments the loss of life and limb, and argues that the procedure could have saved many lives were it not for the skepticism. The book then discusses the methods used post-surgery to keep the limb immobile and describes the author's own invention of a suspension-rod and splint, designed to improve on these methods. The author argues its benefits, which include comfort for the patient, easy dressing changes, and permanence throughout the healing process. The unique insights and historical context this book provides will be invaluable to surgeons and medical historians alike.
