The third edition of the Comprehensive Guide in Knee and Hip Arthroplasty from Asia Pacific Arthroplasty Society is of excellent quality. It is a compilation of knowledge by the best minds in Asia and covers basic concepts to complex arthroplasty problems and offers practical surgical recommendation.
The number of arthroplasties in Asia is growing rapidly, and challenges faced by the Asian surgeons are different than the western world. The Compendium is a contribution by surgeons from Asia and addresses these challenges and provides solutions. Revision surgeries are one of the emerging challenges in arthroplasty and I am happy that the book has dedicated sections on both Knee and Hip Revisions. Another area of prime importance is the prevention and management of prosthetic joint infection in the last section of the book.
Parag Sancheti was my fellow and has progressed to a leadership position as President of APAS. I would like to congratulate APAS, the editors and the contributors of this compendium for compiling a valuable resource for all arthroplasty surgeons, specifically from Asia. I wish APAS Compendium all the best.

Foreword
Perhaps no operations in medicine have had the improvements of Total Hip and Total Knee Arthroplasty. Without a doubt, those of us who made the career decision to be joint replacement surgeons have had a wonderful life. We do the operation that has been judged the best ever developed. Think about the accomplishments of improved patient lives. Even the patients who received Charnley's failed Teflon cup THR's that lasted 2-3 years thanked him for the relief he gave them for that time period. Today the improvements in materials and surgical technique have prolonged those two years of survival to thirty years! Highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) has been the most important evolution of arthroplasty articulation since Charnley switched to High Molecular Weight Polyethylene, and it is now known to be superior no matter the joint being replaced. Because of HXLPE the number of revisions of hip replacement is much less than projected because osteolysis is effectively eliminated, at least for these past 15–20 years. But the improvements in surgical technique and patient care have paralleled this material improvement. The biggest frontier in these operations today is personalizing our technique to the patient's anatomy. We are learning now that must include the spinopelvic mobility because of its influence on impingement. The use of smart tools in the operating room is exponentially increasing, and current residents will all use computers and robots to facilitate their surgery in their careers. Patient expectations now are shorter surgery, shorter recovery, and longer durability of their operation. Because of these expectations we, as an orthopedic community, must be careful that we do not raise false hopes among ourselves or our patients. Large femoral heads and anterior incisions have given us more options, but they are not the Holy Grail that supplants good surgical technique of tissue care, biomechanical reproduction, and implant positioning. We must strive our whole career to become a better surgeon and always have as our goal a perfect operation. That is the reason this book is so very relevant at this time. It has multiple experts describing for you, the reader, the state-of-the-art techniques and patient care treatments to improve your surgeon and doctor skills. I appreciate the time and work that Parag Sancheti and his co-editors have spent to publish this third Comprehensive Guide in Knee and Hip Arthroplasty. I will use the advice in this book and suggest you plan to do the same.

Foreword
Joint arthroplasty has expanded rapidly worldwide in the last decade: with this expansion has come a great increase in worldwide expertise and the need for worldwide training and educational material in arthroplasty. This excellent Comprehensive Guide in Knee and Hip Arthroplasty will play a key role in the process of broader dissemination of arthroplasty concepts and techniques in the Asia-Pacific region.
This compendium covers a wide range of fundamental concepts and also essential and evolving surgical techniques. At the foundational level, the book covers topics including anatomy, joint kinematics, biomechanics, biomaterials, operative approaches and proven techniques to solve common problems in hip and knee arthroplasty. Other chapters cover more complex and advanced subjects such as management of challenging primary total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty diagnoses and revision hip and knee arthroplasty. Management of common complications—important for any surgeon to perform effectively—receives excellent coverage in the book. Finally, the book has chapters on state-of-the-art areas that are evolving rapidly including computer-based navigation and practical clinical topics such as how to establish a successful arthroplasty practice.
Authors of the book represent many of the most experienced arthroplasty surgeons and respected leaders and educators in the Asia-Pacific area. Several chapters are also written by international experts from outside the region, providing a worldwide perspective on selected topics.
Some readers will use this book as a reference for specific topics as they arise in clinical practice. Others, reading the compendium from start to finish, will gain a solid and strong background in current practice of hip and knee arthroplasty. No doubt, howsoever this excellent and comprehensive compendium is utilized, it will be highly valued by readers.

Foreword
The third edition of the Comprehensive Guide in Knee and Hip Arthroplasty represents more than the printed articles. It is a huge effort on the part of President Professor Parag Sancheti to bring together contributors of various nationalities to a common purpose and spirit.
The idea of a compendium came about all those years ago when the Delta Instructional Courses proved to be highly popular all across Asia-Pacific, and it was thought that a printed version of the instructional lectures may be a helpful addition to the verbal discourse. The Delta Foundation is an independent offshoot of Asia-Pacific Arthroplasty Society (APAS). More than 20 instructional courses had been conducted in more than 8 countries, under its’ banner over the years and these had been hugely popular. These courses pivoted on live-surgery and were aimed at straight-talking honest sharing of surgical experiences. The compendium is its written expression.
Thousands of copies of the compendium are still in circulation in numerous countries. There was even a Mandarin version of the second edition. This, the third edition is a long-time coming and I have no doubt that it will prove helpful to young surgeons seeking to further their knowledge about hip and knee arthroplasty.
This, the third edition of the Delta Compendium is a worthy tribute to the Presidency of Parag Sancheti.

Preface
The third edition of Comprehensive Guide in Knee and Hip Arthroplasty was an amazing academic experience for all of us in the editorial team. We had the enriched base of the second edition on which we had to build-up the new and updated edition. The journey started more than two years back and we are sure the final output adds value to everyone reading it.
The whole aim of this compendium was to produce a document, which is not only accurate, and evidence based, but also is rich in the personal experiences of the authors. The selection of topics and authors was a major exercise to meet this aim. We wanted authors from all parts of the globe and also authors who have done significant work in the field and have good clinical experience on the topics they will be writing. The final version of the table of content took a good amount of time, but we feel the current content and authors list does justice to the compendium.
The Compendium is organized in six sections starting with the Science of Arthroplasty, Primary Knee Arthroplasty, Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty, Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty, Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty and Periprosthetic Infection. Readers should begin with the first section, but further each section is standalone and can be read in any order. One of the most essential sections of the book is the section on Periprosthetic Infection and is a must read for every arthroplasty surgeon. The book provides the core concepts as well as the surgical tips and tricks for dealing with simple as well as complex arthroplasty surgeries. Each chapter is written with care to meet the main aim of the book of providing an experience rich academic content to the readers. We have tried to arrange chapters chronologically in the way of increasing complexity of the surgeries and management protocol in every section.
