Synopsis

Orthopaedic emergencies account for 20-25 percent of cases presented in the emergency department. These are often complicated cases to handle because they involve a musculoskeletal system that is interdependent, involving bone, muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, blood vessels, nerves and related tissues. This comprehensive reference focuses on the fundamentals of orthopaedics (including terminology) and radiology and the principles of techniques, evaluation, stabilization, diagnosis, therapy and complication prevention. Over 700 radiographs and line illustrations demonstrate the correct diagnostic methods.
