Ao Principles of Fracture Management

Thieme and AO Publishing are pleased to announce the new, updated edition of the "bible" of AO ASIF expertise. Known simply as the "Manual," this edition contains several new unique features, including the availability of CD-ROMs for the first time!

This newly written text includes "Call Outs" for easy cross-referencing. Hundreds of magnificent, full-color intraoperative photographs, radiographs, and illustrations open a visual avenue to the entire content of the Manual.

The CD-ROMs now offer a comprehensive selection of AO teaching videos, allowing the viewer to refer to different sections as needed. Basic and specific instructional videos help understand special techniques. The chapter on specific fractures is supported through sequences of practical exercise tapes relating to different areas of the skeleton like humerus, pelvis, femur, tibia, etc. Navigational features include hyperlinks, electronic bookmarks, and text search by keywords.

Easy direct links from the CD-ROM to related Internet sites including Medline for abstracts.
