Obtain optimal outcomes with masterful guidance! The Cowboy’s Conundrum: Complex and Advanced Cases in Shoulder Arthroscopy brings you step-by-step advice from preeminent orthopaedic surgeons, helping you to successfully perform even the most challenging techniques and achieve the best results. Authored by Stephen S. Burkhart, MD and his expert team of surgeons, creators of bestselling titles A Cowboy’s Guide to Advanced Shoulder Arthroscopy and The Cowboy’s Companion: A Trail Guide for the Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgeon, The Cowboy’s Conundrum brings you the collective wisdom of world authorities who have been intimately involved in pioneering and refining today’s approaches to minimally invasive shoulder surgery. Dr. Burkhart uses his trademark “cowboy” flair to communicate essential clinical pearls in an approachable and entertaining manner.

In the past five years, the techniques used in arthroscopic shoulder surgery have advanced exponentially. The basic principles are the same, but the theories, techniques, and instrumentation have dramatically improved. The Cowboy's Companion: A Trail Guide for the Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgeon is truly a companion book to Burkhart’s View of the Shoulder: A Cowboy's Guide to Advanced Shoulder Arthroscopy, which builds on the principles of the first book and concentrates on the new theories and techniques that have developed since the first book was written. The book is separated into two sections: The Shoulder Roundup, which will be an update on the techniques and ideas that have developed in shoulder surgery and The Shoulder Rodeo, which will be a collection of challenging cases that demonstrate unique approaches to difficult shoulder problems. The text comes with two DVDs that feature advanced interactive technology. The surgical videos will be supplemented with state-of-the-art digitally enhanced illustrations and animations, to create an entirely new 3-dimensional learning environment for the surgeon.

Now available for the first time as a set, this unique resource uses clear colour photographs, realistic 3-dimensional images and video clips taken from actual clinical cases to provide life-like depictions of shoulder surgery. This is the first product of its kind to go beyond the written word and static pictures to give a realistic picture of athroscopy in practice. Included on the CD are audio clips of surgeons revealing clinical tips and advice.

This interactive CD-ROM includes an introduction to shoulder problems by a group of outstanding contributors. By using clear color gross photographs, user-controlled 3-dimentional models of shoulder anatomy, and video cases, the CD-ROM shows how surgeons use various operative techniques such as how to tie knots. This series is the first to go beyond the written word with static pictures to give a realistic overview of arthroscopy in practice.

The government was the beginning and end of everything. For Terrance and Carol Cruz, it was the beginning of their life. The job, the car, the house, the kids...they'd grown up being taught the government allowed for all those things. It also kept a watchful eye on those who thought the wrong things or believed the wrong beliefs. They never had a reason to question that. Until that day, the day Terrance found out they'd be replacing his daughter. They knew what they were supposed to do, but questions lead to answers, answers that can change everything. Now they have to decide if they will ignore the realest thing they've ever felt to go back to their comfortable way of life. Or will they sacrifice it all for truth and someone who may be lost for forever. Are they really losing their daughter, or the corpus child?
