Fracture Manipulation Treatment Illustrated

The current treatments of fractures can be roughly divided into three major categories, i.e. non-operation treatment, operative treatment and limited operative treatment. Each category has its specific indications and is used according to the clinical conditions, equipment, technology and personal experience available. However the majority of scholars agree can achieve the same result. This is because an operation usually impairs the blood circulation in a fractured part, hampering the automatic repair capacity in the area, leading to the change of a closed fracture into an open one and bringing about some complications and sequelae. So doctors should try to avoid surgical operations in treating frctures unless they are absolutely necessary.
The compiler of this book experienced the trauma of a humeral fracture when he was young. When he grew up, he was determined to specialize in traumatology and orthopedics. Through years of clinical practice and theoretical study he has accumulated rich experience and data. This remarkable book is the result of arduous research and has been widely welcomed at national and international academic conferences.
