Description

McRae’s Orthopaedic Trauma and Emergency Fracture Management, 3rd Edition

By Timothy O White

This book is derived from Ronald McRae’s Pocketbook of Orthopaedics and Fractures, a highly successful’survival guide’ for the trainee working in accident and emergency or orthopaedic departments. Retaining the underlying principles of the original editions, this comprehensive rewrite and re-presentation provides complete coverage of orthopaedic trauma surgery as relevant to contemporary practice.

• McRae’s Orthopaedic Trauma and Emergency Fracture Management utilizes a detailed descriptive and didactic style, alongside a wealth of illustrations, all completely redrawn for this book.
• The first section on general principles in orthopaedic trauma deals with basic terminology and classification, principles of closed and operative management of fractures, infection, and complications.
• The main section provides a regional review of specific injuries, each following a logical sequence describing emergency department and orthopaedic management and outlining a safe and widely accepted management strategy. Each chapter begins with an overview of the relevant anatomy and principles of the examination of the patient.
• The book provides a comprehensive overview of both surgical and conservative management of orthopedic trauma injuries.

• This book is a fully rewritten text based on a classic textbook by Mr. Ronald McRae.
• Now in a larger page size, the book contains over 500 illustrations, all drawn in two colors for this new edition.
• Over 250 x-rays accompany the text, many of which are connected with the line drawings to ease interpretation.
