A historical collection of patella fractures and practical methods from the 19th century.

This volume compiles 127 cases and the techniques used to treat them, offering insight into early modern orthopedic practice and its outcomes. It focuses on direct experiences, patient progress, and the everyday challenges surgeons faced when the field relied on splints, bandages, and careful observation.

This edition presents real-world case histories and the evolution of treatment ideas, including the author’s own method for aligning and immobilizing the knee. It shows how surgeons observed fragment positions, documented unions, and tracked recovery over weeks and months. The narrative stays close to the premise of patellar injuries, the methods devised to achieve stability, and the practical results for patients of varying ages and circumstances.

Real case descriptions with dates, ages, injuries, and outcomes
Step-by-step explanations of splint design, bandaging, and conservative care
Observations on union, ankylosis, and the role of muscle use in recovery
Practical considerations for applying and adjusting immobilization

Ideal for readers of historical medical practices, orthopedic enthusiasts, and those curious about nineteenth‑century surgical problem solving.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate world of patella fractures, a subject that had received relatively little attention from medical professionals prior to the authorâ� �s work. The author meticulously analyzes 127 cases of patella fractures, drawing on their own clinical experience and the extensive records kept at Bellevue Hospital. The book goes beyond simply cataloguing cases, exploring the complexities of treatment and the various methods employed to achieve healing. The author highlights the frequency of fractures caused by muscular action and the challenges associated with securing and maintaining apposition of the fractured bone fragments. The text provides detailed descriptions of the various treatment methods used, from traditional splints to more innovative techniques. By systematically examining a large number of cases, the author illuminates the nuances of patella fracture treatment and the factors that influence the healing process. This book serves as a valuable resource for medical practitioners, offering a unique glimpse into the medical knowledge and practices of the 19th century. Its exploration of the difficulties in achieving bony union, the frequency of fibrous union, and the significant time required for functional recovery offers a historical perspective on the challenges faced by surgeons in treating this type of injury. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781332013579_0
