Description:

The 4th Edition of this highly respected book uses step-by-step medical illustrations―organized in a unique "cartoon-strip" fashion―and concise descriptions to depict the diagnosis and treatment of fractures, with an emphasis on conservative management. This user-friendly visual approach has made it easy for countless readers to master essential clinical knowledge. Improved illustrations and radiographs make every concept clearer than ever. The text reflects the recent trend towards operative management of fractures with new coverage of surgical principles and indications, and features meticulous updates throughout from new co-author Max Esser.

  • Organized by body region for ease of reference.
  • Offers advice on the management of a fracture clinic.
  • Revised to take account of increased tendency towards operative management of fractures. It covers indications for and principles of operative management, without going into detail on operative technique, and continues to provide sound guidance on conservative management.
  • Fracture classification systems which are too complex for "on the job" reference by trainee level staff have been dropped from the text.
  • Improved reproduction of X rays.
  • Thorough updating of all text and illustrations.
  • Line diagrams have redrawn using shades of grey to give a clearer, brighter and more up to date appearance.
