External Fixation of the Pelvis and Extremities is a high-yield review of external fixation strategies for fracture care. The handbook provides vital pre-operative management techniques, reviews pertinent anatomy and safe zones of each region, presents classification systems for each fracture, and provides external fixation constructs for fixation. The book is divided into four sections: general concepts, the upper extremity, the pelvis, and the lower extremity. Presented in an outline format with numerous figures and charts—including images of frame constructs, fracture patterns, and surgical anatomy—the text is an essential resource in understanding and applying external fixation for patient care.
