comprehensively explores the distribution of fracture patterns in
clinical practice. This second edition features an in-depth review of a
much larger sample size in a nationwide study on fracture incidence.
All fractures are classified according to the widely accepted AO/OTA
system for immediate recognition and analysis. Not only will readers
get a full statistical overview of fracture location, segment, and
type, but they will also learn key demographic data such as age,
gender, incidence rate, and more.

• More
  than 2,000 anatomic diagrams, illustrations, MRI and CT images, and
  X-rays that clearly demonstrate how the AO/OTA fracture classification
  and coding system works
• Easy-to-follow, standardized chapters
  that cover accepted classifications and nomenclature, anatomy,
  mechanisms of injury, epidemiological features, and take-home messages
  on diagnosis and treatment for each bone and segment
• Multicolored pie charts and bar graphs that make statistical information accessible and user-friendly
• Numerous case examples reflecting the author’s depth and breadth of experience

In addition to being a core reference for orthopaedic residents and surgeons, Clinical Epidemiology of Orthopaedic Trauma, Second Edition,
is an indispensable reference for academic researchers; medical
schools, libraries, and hospitals; and clinicians reviewing data for
analysis or publication. It offers a wealth of information that will
impact treatment planning, future allocation of resources in trauma
care, and initiatives in preventive medicine.
