About this title

Synopsis

The 3rd Edition of this 2-volume comprehensive work provides expert coverage of today's most contemporary approaches to the management of fractures and other injuries. Internationally recognized specialists offer extensive coverage of both internal and external fixation and the basic anatomy and mechanisms of injury integrated with diagnosis, management, follow-up, and complications. New content encompasses trauma reconstruction, malunions, nonunions, infections, limb length discrepancies, and related problems.

Features expanded discussions of closed management, as well as coverage of trauma reconstruction for injuries that fail to heal properly after their first treatment.

Includes revised coverage of acute foot injuries.

Offers four brand-new chapters: Diagnosis and Treatment of Nonunions; Reconstructive Total Hip Replacement after Proximal Femoral Injuries; Foot Injury Reconstruction; and Principles of Deformity Correction.
