In general, each chapter includes: patient selection, indications for surgery, preoperative investi- gations, surgical planning, positioning, step-by-step description of the surgical procedure, and postoperative complications.

Ten years after the previous edition, the editor and the authors have considerably changed the book by discarding some out-of-date aspects while adding entirely new chapters. Almost all the chapters have been substan- tially updated with respect to the last edition. Each chapter is meant to address each key operative aspect of the procedures or diseases that are discussed. In general, each chapter includes: patient selection, indications for surgery, preoperative investi- gations, surgical planning, positioning, step-by-step description of the surgical procedure, and postoperative complications.
