Handbook of Orthopaedic Trauma by Paul V Fearon

In an aging population and with greater participation in contact sports, the incidence of fractures is on the increase, and conversely the amount of hands-on experience that orthopaedic trainees receive is declining.

The book provides a detailed manual of the management of orthopaedic trauma. It includes indications for surgery, initial management and theatre set-up and equipment, step-by-step technique with cadaveric photographs showing the surgical approaches, and complications and their avoidance.

Pre- and post-operative radiological images are also included as well as ‘tips and tricks of the trade’ to ensure a successful outcome.
