Description
Completely updated for its Third Edition, Fractures, the acclaimed Master Techniques in Orthopaedic Surgery volume presents the most advanced, successful surgical techniques for fractures of the upper extremity, lower extremity, pelvis, and acetabulum. The world's foremost surgeons describe their preferred techniques in step-by-step detail, explain the indications and contraindications, identify pitfalls and potential complications, and offer pearls and tips for improving results. The book is thoroughly illustrated with full-color, sequential, surgeon's-eye view intraoperative photographs, as well as drawings by noted medical illustrators.
This edition includes ten new chapters - total elbow arthroplasty, revised shoulder arthroplasty, proximal humerus hemiarthroplasty, extra articular proximal tibial fractures, submuscularis locked plating, subtrochanteric femur fractures, ankle fractures, calcaneal fractures, tibial pilon fractures, tibial pilon fractures, and staged ORIF. Seventeen chapters have been rewritten by new contributing authors and leaders in their field.

Reviews / Votes
"This is not an indications book; it is a how-to book, akin to a cookbook, and the recipes are thorough and very instructive. Conveniently, it includes access to the complete contents online. The color photographs and diagrams as well as the x-ray images are particularly noteworthy.""This is a necessary component of the academic orthopedic surgical library. The online access capability will help residents prepare for participating in a particular trauma operation."
