Fractures of the hand and wrist are among the most common musculoskeletal injuries sustained by orthopedic patients. In fact, most people will suffer from such an injury at some point in their lives. Although treatment is typically straightforward, several pitfalls exist that often require the attention of a trained specialist.
The international panel of expert hand surgeons provides insights into new developments and techniques for both basic and more challenging management and treatment problems. Discussion of hand and wrist fractures is broken down into chapters focusing on distal phalanx fractures, fingertip crush injuries, phalangial shaft fractures, metacarpal fractures, carpal fracture dislocations, and scaphoid fractures. Special attention is given to challenging proximal interphalangeal fracture-dislocations, including evolving concepts in fixation and arthroplasty, and the treatment of distal radius fractures.Distal Phalanx Fractures/Finger Tip Crush Injuries.
