Fracture Reduction and Fixation Techniques

This book is the second volume on Osteosynthesis of Fractures and focuses on fractures of the spine-pelvis and lower extremities. It illustrates the techniques of fracture reduction clearly, using a step-wise approach with real time intra-operative photographs. Tips and tricks for how to avoid pitfalls are presented by a panel of experts to give the readers a complete overview of how to perform reduction techniques for different fracture types.

This book will be an essential guide for surgeons to utilise the available reduction instruments and preserve the vitality of the bone and surrounding soft tissues.

Provides an overview of both minimal invasive and open reduction approaches Clearly presents all types of reduction tools and equipment and their appropriate use Includes step-by-step guidance for preserving the biology of the surrounding soft issues in lower extremity and Spine-Pelvis
