Recenzje

"…presents a compact, systematic, and well written overview of anatomy, aetiology, clinical symptoms and signs, and treatment of these syndromes. …Perhaps the most valuable part of the book is the description of the anatomical relations that underlie the aetiology of the canicular syndromes. …The beauty of this book is its simplicity and clear structure, which is achieved without any loss of factual knowledge. …well suited for medical students who want to learn about these common diagnoses and orthopaedic surgeons who wan to keep up with the developments in the specialty. Other medical specialties involved in the diagnosis or treatment of patients with tunnel syndromes would also benefit from this book."
- The Lancet, May 25, 2002

"The book is clearly structured, as each tunnel syndrome is presented in a separate chapter including: anatomy, etiology, clinical symptoms and signs, treatment and references. I strongly recommend this book not only to orhthopaedic surgeons, but also to any other doctors treating patients with tunnel syndromes."
