Avian Surgical Anatomy And Orthopedic Management, 2nd Edition, functions as a reference detailing avian musculoskeletal structure and surgical procedures. Authors Susan Orosz, Scott Echols, and Patrick Redig establish clinical guidance to assist practitioners with complex orthopedic cases. The text focuses on structural details and repair methods across bird species commonly encountered in clinical practice and rehabilitation, including poultry, pigeons, parrots, and birds of prey.

The material presents anatomical form alongside practical repair methods. Specific chapters address surgical approaches to the leg, the management of wing fractures, and tie-in fixators. High-resolution digital computed tomography imaging clarifies the vascular anatomy of bird limbs, delivering precise visual reference points for operative planning.

This 438-page reference expands upon the 1992 foundational work Avian Surgical Anatomy: Thoracic and Pelvic Limbs by Orosz, Ensley, and Haynes. It offers structured reference material for avian veterinarians, veterinary surgeons, rehabilitation medicine clinicians, and veterinary students and educators.
