      abstract = {This book provides up-to-date guidance on the diagnosis  and treatment of the most important complex fractures of  the limbs, including fractures of the proximal and distal  humerus, fractures and dislocations of the elbow, fractures  of the distal radius, pelvis, acetabulum, distal femur,  proximal tibia, tibial pilon, calcaneus and osteoporotic  knee fractures. The most complex articular fractures are  analyzed, soft tissue coverage is reviewed, and the  management of open fractures and nonunions is described and  illustrated. Other chapters consider damage control  management and immediate bone fixation in the polytrauma  patient, skeletal reconstruction and rehabilitation of  complex fractures of the limbs. The book offers guidance to  orthopaedic surgeons on which treatment options afford the  best preservation of fully functional joints around the  fractured bone. With this goal in mind, the authors have  developed strategies that can restore full articular  function of the limbs in both the short and the long term.  Complex Fractures of the Limbs will be an invaluable aid to  orthopaedic surgeons in treating patients with this very  common and important clinical problem.},
