Main description:

This is a step-by-step guide to common orthopedic procedures, highlighting pitfalls and offer possible solutions. Each intervention is supported by X-ray evidence. It describes minimal access approaches to allow surgeons to perform intramedullary nailing of the femur, tibia and humerus. The techniques covered are well illustrated with radiographs and drawings, and provide practical guidance on surgical techniques.

This is a unique reference book explaining multiple variations of intramedullary nailing operative techniques in a detailed step-by-step manner.
Includes guidelines on positioning of the patient, finding the correct entry point positioning of the guidewire, technique of reaming, and insertion of nail into an appropriate site in the bone to avoid subsequent complications, morbidity and mortality of the patient.
Encompasses a broad range of surgeries including fixation techniques of long bones as well as hand fractures.
Guidelines are based on a course accredited by the Royal College of Surgeons, England, UK, which is run by the author himself.
