Master Techniques in Orthopaedic Surgery: Orthopaedic Oncology and Complex Reconstruction focuses on bone and soft tissue tumors, which are among the most challenging problems for orthopaedic surgeons to manage. The book is broad in scope and includes coverage of massive reconstruction following trauma. The international authorship includes outstanding surgeons from Germany, Austria, Italy, Australia, and Great Britain in addition to the United States.

The contributors describe their preferred techniques in step-by-step detail, point out pertinent anatomy, and offer pearls and tips for improving results.
