Fully revised and expanded, with over 230 new illustrations, this second edition reviews accepted treatments and discusses the best choice for treatment. A noteworthy addition to the volume is an entirely new chapter on acute and chronic derangement of the distal radioulnar joint, a complex joint that has been poorly understood and neglected until only recently. The authors have provided an in-depth discussion of treatment options, including functional aftercare, cast immobilization, as well as open and arthroscopic surgical approaches. No orthopedic surgeon can be without this definitive and up-to-date guide to the treatment of these remarkably complex injuries.
