Shows some signs of wear, and may have some markings on the inside. 100 Money Back Guarantee.The fixation of small fragments which are of such biomechanical importance, has hitherto given indifferent results, especially when the distal parts of the hand and foot are involved. These implants have significantly expanded the scope of AS IF instrumentation for internal fixation. Pannike first compared the application of the small fragment set with the conventional methods used in hand surgery. Heim and Pfeiffer in cooperation with Meuli, illustrate in this Volume the small fragment set, elucidating in a didactic manner the composition of the set, the indications for its use, and its method of application to all suitable fractures. Enough good results have been secured to establish the usefulness of this development. The following volume may therefore be regarded as an important supplement to the ASIF Manual. It makes it clear again that every internal fixation requires a high level of technical skill, a sense of responsibility, and very gentle handling of the soft tissues.

5-mm screw introduced. A number of new plates and implants have been introduced and have long since proved their value. At the same time new techniques, described here, have been developed and applied. The tension-band wire is included, despite the fact that it does not consist of specific AO implants, and use of the Kirschner wire is also illustrated and emphasized whenever the authors consider that this simple method is still the best available. Alterations in the organization of the book have been necessary: the shoulder, the forearm and the knee are treated in separate chapters, and other sections have been extended. With regard to clinical-radiological examples, new typical situations are described and documented. The case studies from the first edition have been recontrolled in all instances in which it was feasible to do so. In this way many valuable late results, 9-12 years after internal fixation, were obtained. We found that almost all joints had remained stable after healing of an articular fracture; so-called late arthrosis is rare in the peripheral skeleton. Dr. Urs (et al.) Dr. Urs (et al.)

The emphasis is on articular fractures particularly in the shoulder girdle elbow hand talocalcaneal joint and foot and minor fractures in the area of the knee the book is intended as a companion volume to the manual of internal fixation the bulk of the text is concerned with indications and step by step techniques illustrated in semidiagrammatic figures each chapter contains examples. Increasing demands for a description of the AO technique of internal fixation has stimulated us to publish this manual. In it we shall describe in a comprehensive but somewhat apodictic mann er the principles and techniques of the AO methods of fracture treatment and reconstructive surgery, which in our hands, have stood the test of time. The book is written in a somewhat abbreviated style. This manual should be regarded as the product of collective experiencc, containing new thoughts and new discoveries from basic research.Dr. med.

Clear definitions for the standardization of different types of osteosynthesis were possible: interfragmentary compression, splintage and buttressing as well as combina tions of these three techniques. At the same time a scienti fic and workmanlike instrumentation was developed. The idea was to keep diversification within limits but, however, to assemble a comprehensive collection of implants and in struments to answer all the problems presented by the com plexity of bone operations. Osteosynthesis is a difficult and demanding operative method. Its. claims on the surgeon and the theatre staff are high. Our collaborator FRIDOLIN SEQUIN, graduate engineer, has accomplished this task with expert knowledge. He has organized over many years courses for theatre nurses and has been able from the resulting experience to provide helpful suggestions. When RIGMOR TEXHAMMAR R.

Thoughtfully developed by Fridolin Sequin and Rigmor Texhammar, the manual discussed in a clear fashion the purpose and care of the various AO instruments that are handled by the operating room staff. One important feature of the first edition was a detailed checklist of the instruments required for the more common operative procedures for treating fractures. Fridolin Sequin was well-suited to author the first edition: his 15 years of experience as a technical engineer for the AO gave him in-depth knowledge of AO instruments, and he drew on the clinical knowledge of Rigmor Texhammar, a consultant and director of the AO courses for nurses. Its original feature of combining a column of text with a column of illustrations meant the manual quickly became accepted as a standard. By 1981, translations could be found in English, French, Spanish, and Italian. Not surprisingly, the manual was very popular. Unfortunately, Fridolin Sequin's passing meant the original team could not carry on with the project, but Chris Colton of Nottingham, England, stepped in where Fridolin Sequin left off. As director of one of the strongest orthopaedic trauma units in Great Britain, he was well-suited to take on this difficult task. The combined forces of Chris Colton and Rigmor Texhammar led to a new focus of emphasis for the second edition, which evolved around providing a reference not only for the operating room staff, but also for the increasing numbers of young surgeons who, it was noticed, used the first edition to aid their understanding of the operative care of fractures. Operative fracture care is not only a worthwhile and rewarding experience for new surgeons, but also a difficult and demanding task. For this reason, a readily available text outlining both AO instruments and techniques was needed. The aims of this manual, however, are broader than merely providing a description of AO instruments and techniques. In chapters written in collaboration with S.M. Perren and other clinicians and researchers with comprehensive knowledge in the field, the principles and the history of the AO are updated. Recently developed AO instruments and their uses are discussed, and new areas are explored. In order to help emphasize the important aspects of a procedure, an intraoperative checklist of the surgical steps was developed by Chris Colton. Since the time a trauma surgeon has to prepare for a given case is occasionally limited, this checklist will be extremely helpful. Knowledge of the important steps in a procedure will also enable the surgical scrub nurse to better understand the surgeon's work. Chris Colton has contributed a number of new and important elements to the second edition. Clear and reliable information is given on such topics as imaging techniques (e. g. tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasound) and compartment syndromes, to name just a few. The fracture classification is included for each anatomic area discussed. The indications for osteosynthesis, preoperative planning, patient positioning, operative approach, and AO strategies for treatment are also discussed at length. One of the most important aspects of the second edition remains the detailed instrument checklist, which was the responsibility of Rigmor Texhammar and was well-outlined in the first edition. It has, however, undergone major revisions in the second edition: Rigmor Texhammar's profound understanding of the AO techniques and long association with AO has provided an essential background to enable her to carefully review and enlarge upon the original instrument checklists. Much of the credit for the organization and for the writing of this manual must, therefore, be given to Rigmor Texhammar. Between the first and second editions, many new instruments, implants and operation techniques were developed by the AO. Not surprisingly, the length of this manual has increased from 300 pages in the first edition to more than 500 pages in the second edition and includes three times as many illustrations. Even so, the presentation of text and illustrations is excellent. Congratulations to the authors and the editor. Noteworthy is also the contribution of Lotti Schwendener, a collaborator for the M. E. Muller Foundation in Berne, who has dedicated more than 10 months of effort to producing thousands of excellent photographs, the basis for the illustrations included. This book has gone even beyond the high goals initially set by Rigmor Texhammar and Chris Colton. It will surely once again be an orthopaedic 'best seller'. Within this manual, the entire operating team will find the information essential to know before any osteosynthesis is carried out. It will certainly become indispensable in clinics where AO instruments and techniques are used. Berne, October 1993 Maurice E. Muller VI 6 Preface The first edition of this book, written by Fridolin Sequin and Rigmor Texhammar, was published in 1981 as a manual for operating room personnel. In contrast to the AO Manual of Internal Fixation, it focused primarily on the technical and practical aspects of the instrumentation and implant inventory. In the years since then, the AO system has evolved with the accumulation of surgical experience. Thus many instruments have been developed that are not covered by that landmark work, making its replacement necessary. Sadly, the death of Fridolin Sequin in 1988 meant that a new team had to be constituted, which gave us the opportunity to review the content and emphasis of this new publication. Since this book addresses the same subject and readership as the first edition, it inevitably builds upon the former's concepts. Any similarities of content or style must stand as a tribute to the original work. Our experience over the years in discussion with operating room personnel in numerous countries has shown that a deeper understanding of the scientific and clinical foundations of surgical procedures leads to greater ease of assimilation and retention of details. Knowledge is also the key to a much better sense of cohesion among the operating team. This manual is about the techniques used in the AO system. It does not set out to teach fracture care. It is of value only when the decision has been made, for whatever reason, to perform an AO skeletal stabilisation. A consideration of operative procedures (Chap. 7) has been deliberately included and dealt with in some depth. Some indications are mentioned, but only to guide the operating room personnel in understanding why decisions were made. Maybe it would be reasonable to draw a parallel with the instruction manual that comes with a new car. It tells you in detail how to perform all the actions necessary to use the car safely, carefully and with maximum effect, how to care for it and reduce wear and tear, and how to execute various manoeuvres. However, it does not tell you when to get into the car and drive nor where to go. Those who wish to delve deeper into any of the subjects covered by this book will find some recommendations for additional study at the end of many sections. VII 7 There have been many friends and colleagues who have made this edition possible. We should like to thank especially our fellow authors of the various sections, who are listed in the table of contents. Furthermore, Lotti Schwendener deserves our special gratitude for the time and enthusiasm she displayed in producing such superb photographs. Without these, the book would have little meaning. The skill and professionalism of our talented artists, Mrs V Rohrbach and Mr K. Oberli, enrich the text with incomparable illustrations. The difficult task of sorting and numbering the illustrations was borne with patience by Petra Jareke. The publications by M. E. Muller et al., J. Schatzker and M. Tile, U. Heim and K. H. Pfeiffer, T. Rtiedi, A.H.C. von Hochstetter and R.Schlumpf, J.Mast, R.Jakob and R. Ganz, and of course the 3rd edition of the Manual of Internal Fixation have proved invaluable references for us. The customary expressions of gratitude to the typists will be omitted-we typed it all ourselves- thanks to Microsoft, IBM and Nescafe -. The patience and forbearance of our spouses-bo J areke and J o Colton-meant that we could devote countless hours to the production and refinement of the edited text. Their unjust reward has been long periods of loneliness interspersed with oases of time with a tired and stressed companion.
