Download or read book Pediatric and Adult Hand Fractures written by Joshua M. Abzug and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-26 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the necessary information for surgeons to diagnose and treat fractures that occur in the pediatric and adult hand, written by experts who routinely care for these injuries. It is imperative that treating healthcare providers understand the nuances that will be presented throughout the book to avoid missing a diagnosis, mistreating a fracture as a minor injury, or risking other common pitfalls and potential complications. Part one covers pediatric hand fractures and begins with a review of the anatomy and osseous development of the hand, followed by physical and radiographic evaluation. Subsequent chapters focus on all areas of the hand, including metacarpal, phalangeal and fingertip fractures. Part two takes a similar approach to the adult hand, opening with physical and radiographic evaluation and then proceeding to a more in-depth discussion of each type and area of fracture. Arthroscopic and WALANT procedures for hand fractures are also presented here, as are rehabilitation strategies and orthoses. Fractures that occur in the hand are typically treated by numerous providers, and therefore Pediatric and Adult Hand Fractures: A Clinical Guide to Management has wide applicability, including orthopedic surgeons, emergency department/urgent care center providers, general practitioners, plastic surgeons, and fellows and trainees in all of these areas.

Download or read book The Pediatric Upper Extremity written by Joshua M. Abzug and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sub-specialization within pediatric orthopedics is growing, in part due to the development of free-standing children's hospitals and the desire by patients and their parents to have "experts" care for them. We are at the forefront of a trend in physicians classifying themselves as pediatric upper extremity surgeons. Numerous pediatric hospitals now have or are recruiting physicians to focus their practice in this area. Historically, these issues were treated by general orthopedic surgeons, adult hand surgeons, pediatric orthopedic surgeons, or plastic surgeons. However, none of these professionals treat the entirety of pediatric upper extremity pathology, and no single reference has focused on the treatment of the pediatric upper extremity as a whole. For example, fractures have typically been written about in pediatric textbooks, while tendon and nerve injuries are covered in adult hand textbooks. This textbook is a comprehensive, illustrated reference that discusses all aspects of the pediatric upper extremity, from embryology and functional development to nerve injuries, trauma, tumors, burns, sports injuries and more.

Both acute and chronic fractures are then discussed in detail, beginning with a brief outline of the epidemiology, classification, and work-up of each fracture, but the main focus will be on providing a master’s approach to the surgical treatment of these injuries, including supracondylar fractures, capitellar shear fractures, elbow dislocations, Monteggia fracture dislocations, and cubitus varus and valgus, among others.
