Handbook of Fractures

This pocket-sized reference book provides information on the fracture treatment of all bones. A concentration on small anatomic areas enables material to be located and reviewed quickly. Each chapter covers: anatomy of the area, various possible mechanisms of injury, classifications of fractures, clinical evaluation (including both physical and radiographic examination), indications and treatment (both operative and non-operative), results, late complications and summary/reflections. Line drawings and X-rays complement the text throughout.
