Specific revision topics presented include first MTP joint fusion, failed bunion and hammertoe, failed Lisfranc and fifth metatarsal fracture, failed flatfoot and subtalar fusion, and nonunion of ankle fusion and failed total ankle replacement, among others. The challenge of revision foot and ankle surgery is that there are countless ways for a surgery to fail.

"The book is intended to be the 'go-to' reference for early-career foot and ankle surgeons. ... The book will also be of benefit to the more seasoned general orthopedist who may encounter revision procedures from time to time. ... this book makes a sizeable dent in the subspecialty of revision surgery of the foot and ankle and is to be recommended."
