Book Description
This textbook offers a comprehensive view of all aspects of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO). The second expanded edition includes the expert knowledge of AO surgeons from all around the world. It not only provides basic concepts and the latest clinical and basic scientific research, but guides the interested surgeon through the crucial steps of MIPO application in the different anatomical regions. Enhanced by clear photographs, x-rays, MRls, CT scans, and detailed illustrations, the book comprises two sections: Section 1, Principles, covers the principles of MIPO surgery as well as education in MIPO. Section 2, Cases, encompasses all anatomical regions. For each region there is a comprehensive introduction covering general aspects of MIPO techniques regarding indications, preoperative planning, and positioning, before indirect and direct reduction and fixation techniques are presented. Case examples then allow the reader to follow each procedure in a thorough, step-by-step manner. Additional chapters on pediatric and fragility fractures, special indications, and implant removal conclude this second section. The main concept behind the MIPO technique is to deal with soft tissue and bone in a way that does not add additional trauma to the fracture site. The bone must be accessed through soft-tissue windows away from the fracture site. Direct reduction maneuvers, if needed, should be executed to leave only small footprints at the fracture area and reduce disturbance of fracture healing.

Internal Fixation of Small Fractures
Author: Urs Heim
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642726143
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 395
Book Description
The second English-language edition of the Small Fragment Set Manual was enthusiastically received and quickly went into a second printing. In preparing a third edition, we found it necessary to revise the text extensively and partly restructure it. The reasons for this are numerous. Experience of recent years has brought technical refinements in the operative treatment of many types of small fracture. Many of these changes stem from the small-fragment-set training programs conducted in Switzerland since 1980, and also from courses and symposia that have been held in other European countries and the United States. These events were occasions for a fruitful ex change of experience with surgeons who were critical of our methods. As a result of this exchange, we perceived a need both to revise our indications and to give greater attention to alternative techniques. We also felt it necessary to respond to criticisms of the first two editions concerning the catalog-like instrument lists and illustrations, and the attention given to fundamental techniques. Many surgeons who work or would like to work with small implants, especially those practicing abroad, are inexperienced in operations on the larger bones. It is imperative that these colleagues be given a basic introduction to the "biomechanical thinking" of the Swiss Association for the Study of Internal Fixation (ASIF).

Planning and Reduction Technique in Fracture Surgery
Author: Jeffrey Mast

ISBN: 3642613063
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
During the past 30 years, the Study Group for the Problems of Osteosyn thesis (AO) has made decisive contributions to the development of osteo synthesis as a surgical method. Through close cooperation among special ists in the fields of orthopedic and general surgery, basis research, metallurgy, and technical engineering, with consistently thorough follow up, it was possible to establish a solid scientific background for osteosyn thesis and to standardize this operative method, not only for the more ob vious applications in fracture treatment, but also in selective orthopedics where hardly any problems relating to bone, such as those with osteoto mies can be solved without surgical stabilization. Besides the objective aim, the AO was additionally stimulated by a spirit of open-minded friendship; each member of the group was recruited according to his pro fessional background and position, his skills, and his talent for improvisa tion. Against this backdrop without even mentioning the schooling program well known throughout the world I should like to add some personal and general comments. This book is written for clinicians, instructing them how to perform osteo synthesis with special reference to plating in all its varieties and in strict accordance with the biomechanical and biological aspects and facts. From this point of view, the chapter on preoperative planning merits par ticular emphasis. Not only is it conductive to optimal surgery, it will also contribute to self-education and may found a school.

The Rationale of Operative Fracture Care
Author: Joseph Schatzker
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3662024837
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 445
Book Description
After the publication of the AO book Technique of Internal Fixation of Fractures (Miiller, Allgower and Willenegger, Springer-Verlag, 1965), the authors decided after considerable discussion amongst themselves and other members of the Swiss AO that the next edition would appear in three volumes. In 1969, the first volume was published (the English edition, Manual of Internal Fixation, appeared in 1970). This was a manual of surgical technique which discussed implants and instruments and in which the problems of internal fixation were presented schematically without radio logical illustrations. The second volume was to be a treatise on the biomechanical basis of internal fixation as elucidated by the work done in the laboratory for experi mental surgery in Davos. The third volume was planned as the culminating effort based upon the first two volumes, treating the problems of specific fractures and richly illustrated with clinical and radiological examples. It was also to discuss results of treatment, comparing the results obtained with the AO method with other methods. The second and third volumes were never published. The second edition of the AO Manual appeared in 1977. It dealt in greater detail with the problems discussed in the first edition, although it still lacked clinical exam ples and any discussion of indications for surgery. Like the first edition, it was trans lated into many languages and was well received. Finally, after 22 years, the much discussed and much needed third volume has appeared.
