Synopsis

100 Hand Cases provides a clinical write-up of 100 typical cases from two globally recognized authorities who cross over between plastic surgery and orthopedics, the two specialties dedicated to training hand surgeons.

The cases in this book share a concise approach consisting of:

• A description of the problem
• Key anatomy
• Workup
• Treatment
• Alternatives
• Principles and clinical pearls
• Pitfalls
• Classic references related to the case

Full-color photographs and radiographs are included in each case, as well as a discussion of the authors' preferred treatment solution.

Presented in a highly templated, high-yield format, 100 Hand Cases is an ideal quick reference for students and trainees preparing for clinics and the operating room, as well as busy surgeons in need of a brief reminder on key information.
