An outstanding resource

This atlas provides clear and concise descriptions of surgical approaches to every joint and bone you will encounter in veterinary medicine. The illustrations are quite detailed and identify pertinent muscle and fascial layers, as well as major nerves and vessels encountered during the various procedures. Invaluable for junior surgery, orthopedic clinicals and private practice. Piermatti & Flo rule!!
