Beschreibung
This work proposes to cover all the important orthopedic implants and their use in upper and lower limbs. From the invention to pros and cons of the various implants and the logic of why the implants have been developed in their current forms, readers will learn about design, biomechanics needs, and materials. In addition, the book addresses fracture fixation and general issues contrasting different types of subgroups of implants such as nails versus plates or open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) versus external fixation.
Currently there are no specific reference books on this topic. Various commercial companies have operative manuals and inventory lists which detail their own products.
This is a highly informative and carefully presented book that serves as both, a practical and theoretical guide for practicing orthopedic surgeons, scientists/researchers, academicians as well as students.This reference work comprehensively covers essential orthopedic trauma implants and their application in both upper and lower limbs. It offers insights into the invention, advantages, and disadvantages of various implants, along with the rationale behind their current designs, biomechanics, and materials. Additionally, the book addresses fracture fixation and general considerations when comparing different subgroups of implants, such as nails versus plates or ORIF versus external fixation.
The book is divided into several sections, such as upper and lower limbs, spine, and pelvis. It also includes unique sections dedicated to pediatric implants, implant removal, metallurgy and bone grafts. It is written and edited by experienced surgeons from around the world. This book fills the gap as currently, there are no specific reference books on this topic but only operative manuals and inventory lists of various commercial companies detailing their own products.
This highly informative and meticulously presented book serves as both a practical and a theoretical guide for practicing orthopedic surgeons, scientists/researchers, academicians, students as well as orthopedic technicians and nurses.
First-of-its-kind reference book on orthopedic trauma implantology Covers the entire spectrum of orthopedic trauma implants for the upper limb, lower limb, spine, and pelvis Addresses decision making in implant selection, including nails vs. plates and ORIF vs. external fixation

“The book has been well structured in its scope. It begins with general principles of plating, nailing, external fixators and other lesser used implants. … The chapters on biomechanics and metallurgy are a welcome addition to this treatise. … The book serves as useful reading to every orthopaedic surgeon dealing in trauma and also in teaching departments.” (Murali Poduval, Indian Journal of Orthopaedics, Vol. 58 (10), 2024)
“Respect for the knowledge and for the work well done is my ultimate feeling as a reader and user. A book about tools, something that makes us better and improves science and knowledge for the young generation of traumatology and orthopaedic specialists. … this opus is a must for medical libraries, orthopaedic and trauma academic and practice centers, for the orthopaedic specialists and residents. Congratulations.” (Marius M. Scarlat, International Orthopaedics, Vol. 48 (7), 2024)
