Paperback

DESCRIPTION
This year marks the 85th anniversary of the introduction to modern surgery of the revolutionary nail Popularized by Prof G. Kuntscher. His intuitions and studies as well as his techniques of intramedullary (IM) nailing of long bone fractures, continue to remain a pivotal cornerstone in orthopedic culture and practice. I was given the opportunity of selecting some of the most comprehensive new aspects of intramedullary nailing, in traumatology as well as in reconstructive surgery, for this “Updates on Intramedullary Nailing” volume that Minerva Medica Publisher asked me to edit. An international faculty shares it expertise, presenting new management approaches to help understanding and solving old problems, from limb lengthening to stabilization of femur, tibia, and femoral neck fractures. Article that discusses original improved contemporary technical approaches for tibia fractures are included. A major thank you goes to all the friends that have contributed to this volume. I hope that I have been able to pass my enthusiasm for orthopaedic traumatology to some young orthopedic surgeon in Italy.
