Fractures. Master Techniques In Orthopaedic Surgery - Tapa dura

The color photographs and diagrams as well as the x-ray images are particularly noteworthy." "This is a necessary component of the academic orthopedic surgical library. The online access capability will help residents prepare for participating in a particular trauma operation." Doody's Reviews Samuel J. Chmell, MD(University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine)
