residents need during trauma surgery rotation or service. It can
easily be read cover to cover during a rotation or used for quick
reference before a patient workup or operation. The user-friendly,
visually stimulating format features ample illustrations, bulleted
lists, boxes, and tables.

Coverage begins with brief chapters on fracture epidemiology and
healing and proceeds to fracture types and injuries at each anatomic
site. A section describes the various surgical and nonsurgical
techniques used in fracture management. Concluding chapters discuss
postoperative complications.
