Read MoreBooks
Dr. Ticker has edited or co-edited five books. Three of the books highlight the spectrum of shoulder surgery over the past 25 years. His first, An Atlas of Shoulder Surgery, was published in 1998, and describes various standard techniques. His second, An Atlas of Shoulder Arthroscopy, was published in 2003, and details the evolution of arthroscopic approaches to shoulder surgical procedures. Dr. Ticker’s most recent technique book, An Atlas of Advanced Shoulder Arthroscopy, was published in 2018. This book describes the most cutting-edge and minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques to treat shoulder problems that do not respond to nonsurgical measures.
He has edited two additional books for academic societies. The first celebrated the 25th Anniversary of the prestigious American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons, published in 2007. The second celebrates the 40th Anniversary of the Arthroscopy Association of North America, the most influential Society in the field of arthroscopy. This represents his most recent book, published in 2022.
