About Book
This book is a compilation of all the complications related to fractures encompassing from wounds to scars. The book delves into 19 fracture complications in detail categorizing into immediate, early, and delayed/late ones. The chapters on peripheral nerve injuries of upper and lower extremities will definitely help the students in understanding how to elicit clinical test/signs for diagnosis. The chapter on brachial plexus injuries is devoted to clinical assessment of motor deficit and level of injury. A chapter on exogenous adult osteomyelitis is an additional attraction for the book as this problem has not found much space in most of the text books. Another chapter has been devoted exclusively to joint stiffness, a very common complication of fractures to make the students understand its pathophysiology, prevention, and treatment. Simple language of the text supported by illustrations wherever required makes the book a valuable guide for students during theory and practical examinations.
