The consorted endeavor of one of the Mastering Orthopedic Techniques: Intra-articular Fractures, attempts to deal with the exclusive intra-articular fractures. Trauma, in the current context, is the major factor in the intra-articular fractures. The principles of intra-articular fracture management have not changed recently; the articular fragments require osteosynthesis with anatomical reduction and interfragmentary compression. The new principle is to provide relative stability, preferably with indirect reduction for the metaphyseal components. All practical surgical options are included with reasons why that particular surgical option for that particular fracture type would be ideal. The surgical options are detailed, including drawings, clinical photos, surgical techniques, equipment needed, pictures and illustrations of the anatomy and operative exposures, techniques and tricks for reduction and fixation and then, equally important, an overview of postoperative management, complications and results. Each chapter then concludes with an illustrative case and references and, even in some cases, a list of tips and pearls. This book on Intra-articular Fractures, they have addressed the issues facing the orthopedic or trauma surgeon and provide an easy reference for all, including residents, fellows, attendings and even more experienced orthopedic surgeons and traumatologists in the management of these often very complex and complicated traumatic injuries.

This book contains the proceedings of an historic sympo sium, the first joint symposium of the Austrian, German and Swiss Trauma Associations and the Orthopaedic Trauma Association of North America. In an effort to bring Euro pean and North American trauma surgeons closer together and foster a free and productive exchange of ideas, these associations chose the meeting of the Austrian, German, and Swiss trauma associations, which was held in Vienna in May of 1991, as the occasion for their first joint session. The Austrian Trauma Association, led by its President, Professor Heinz Kuderna, was the host. The joint symposium of the European and the North American trauma associations, conducted in English, was held concurrently with the regular meeting of the AGS, conducted in German. In order to explore and compare the current concepts in trauma on the two continents, the organizing committee felt that the discussion should focus on an area full of challenge and controversy. Thus the major fractures of the pilon, the talus, and the os calcis were chosen as the topics of discus sion. Each subject was introduced by two keynote speakers, one from Europe and one from North America, who were chosen by their respective trauma associations on the basis of their expertise and distinguished contributions. These presentations were then followed by five or six invited shorter presentations on the subject. At the end of each session, the presenters formed a panel, debated controversial points, and answered questions from the audience.

Biomechanics is often overlooked when dealing with orthopedic injuries, whether regarding prevention or treatment, and practicing surgeons and surgeons-in-training may feel overwhelmed when referring to a book with a more complicated basic science approach. In order to make the subject clinically relevant to orthopedic trauma surgery, this unique text presents numerous clinical case examples to demonstrate clearly and effectively the principles biomechanics of injury, fixation and fracture healing. Divided into five sections, the opening chapters cover the essentials of stress and strain relevant to bone and joints and how this relates to fractures and their healing, complete with illustrative case material. This case-based approach is carried throughout the book, with part two discussing biomechanical principles of external fixation for diaphyseal and periarticular fractures, limb lengthening and deformity correction. Tension band wiring for both olecranon and patella fractures are covered in part three, and both locking and nonlocking plates are illustrated in part four. The final section describes biomechanical principles of intramedullary nails for a variety of fractures and nonunions, as well as arthrodesis and lengthening. Generous radiological images and intraoperative photos provide a helpful visual enhancement for the clinical material. Making the sometimes esoteric topic of biomechanics more clinically relevant to the practicing clinician, Essential Biomechanics for Orthopedic Trauma will be an excellent resource not only for orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine specialists and trauma surgeons, but also medical and biomedical engineering students and residents.
