Hip Surgery: A Patient's Guide to Hip Replacement, Resurfacing and Arthroplasty, edited by Marlow Coffey (Foster Academics, 2018), covers hip surgery, in which a damaged hip joint is replaced with a prosthetic implant, often the only effective treatment for severe hip dysfunction. The book explains the main surgical approaches, including the posterior, anterolateral, lateral and minimally invasive approaches, and reviews the research driving advances in the field so readers stay current with global practice. A useful guide for orthopaedic surgeons, MS/DNB Orthopaedics residents, physiotherapists and patients considering hip replacement.
