Synopsis

Fracture management represents one of the most dynamic and technically demanding areas of modern orthopaedic medicine, requiring a deep understanding of bone biology, biomechanics, injury patterns, surgical principles, and patient-centered rehabilitation.

Fracture Science and Management provides a comprehensive and clinically focused guide to the evaluation, classification, treatment, and long-term care of adult fractures. Integrating foundational science with contemporary orthopaedic practice, this book explores the complete journey of fracture care—from the initial injury assessment to surgical reconstruction and functional recovery.

This authoritative reference covers:

• Bone anatomy, microstructure, biomechanics, and fracture biology
• Mechanisms of fracture formation and principles of bone healing
• Modern fracture classification systems, including AO/OTA and injury-specific approaches
• Clinical assessment, imaging interpretation, and treatment decision-making
• Nonoperative management principles and indications for surgical fixation
• Open fractures, soft tissue management, infection prevention, and reconstruction strategies
• Polytrauma management, damage control orthopaedics, and multidisciplinary trauma care
• Compartment syndrome diagnosis, fasciotomy principles, and rehabilitation
• Upper and lower extremity fracture management, including shoulder, arm, wrist, hand, pelvis, hip, femur, tibia, ankle, and foot injuries
• Spinal fractures and principles of neurological assessment
• Complications including nonunion, malunion, infection, post-traumatic arthritis, and functional impairment
• Osteoporotic fractures, fragility injuries, and strategies for prevention and long-term recovery

Designed for orthopaedic surgeons, trauma specialists, residents, fellows, medical students, and allied healthcare professionals, this book bridges the gap between scientific principles and practical clinical application.

By combining fracture biology, modern surgical techniques, evidence-based decision-making, and rehabilitation strategies, Fracture Science and Management serves as a comprehensive resource for mastering the principles and practice of adult fracture care.

Understand the science. Master the principles. Restore function.
