This comprehensive volume addresses the intricate relationship between obesity and musculoskeletal conditions, offering invaluable insights from experts in the field. The book begins with a discussion on the pathogenesis, prevalence, and epidemiology of obesity, as well as the latest medical and surgical treatments. Specific chapters delve into the spectrum of injuries and the increased morbidity and mortality risks following trauma in obese individuals. Further, the book assesses the impact of obesity on hip, knee, and upper limb disorders, and examines the intersection of obesity and orthopedic oncology. These chapter are thoughtfully divided into two key sections: the rising incidence of musculoskeletal conditions driven by obesity and the challenges encountered in treating these conditions in obese patients. It highlights essential preoperative preparations, radiological challenges, and perioperative obstacles, as well as unique anesthetic considerations for obese patients. Finally, it addresses prehabilitation and rehabilitation strategies tailored to obese individuals and explores current research areas, identifying potential for future investigation. Musculoskeletal Disease and Obesity is an essential resource for orthopedists, sports physicians, physiotherapists, rehabilitation specialists, and general practitioners alike. With its clear structure and expert insights, this book provides both theoretical and practical knowledge to navigate the complexities of treating musculoskeletal conditions in obese patients.
