Seeing is believing. This is the title of a new campaign promoted by the International Agency for Prevention of Blindness to raise funds to help tackle avoidable loss of sight in poorly developed countries, truly an admirable initiative. This book could have used a similar leitmotiv: if you see what happens inside of a joint, you will be able to believe in your patient’s symptoms. But it would not be right. Arthroscopy is not out there just to make

According to reports in the literature, despite the severe disruption of carpal anatomy, fracture-dislocations of the wrist are missed on clinical and radiographic examination in a high percentage of cases. Orthopedic surgeons’ lack of familiarity with these injuries is one of the factors contributing to failed or delayed diagnosis. This richly illustrated book covers all types of wrist dislocation and fracture-dislocation. Detailed information is provided on anatomy and biomechanics, while terminology and classification of injuries are explained. Treatment options are

Wrist trauma remains one of the most common orthopedic conditions that present to the emergency department. In particular, the distal radius fracture is a common injury, but treatment decisions still remain controversial and are often based on surgeon experience. The bone quality and amount of comminution associated with this injury has made surgical fixation frustrating. There has been an explosion of new implants to try and overcome these problems. This issue covers the most recent information available on this very
