In this issue of Hand Clinics, guest editors Drs. Lauren Shapiro and Robin Kamal bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Innovation in Upper Extremity Fracture Treatment. Advances in the treatment of upper extremity fractures have led to techniques that include smaller incisions, enhanced implant design, and novel surgical approaches. In this issue, top experts discuss the advanced techniques can be applied to hand surgery practice to improve patient outcomes.
Contains 15 relevant, practice-oriented topics including minimally invasive techniques for the treatment of metacarpal and phalanx fractures; patient-specific implants for the treatment of fractures; pre-operative surgical optimization to improve outcomes; novel tools to approach and measure outcomes in patients with fractures; and more.
Provides in-depth clinical reviews on innovation in upper extremity fracture treatment, offering actionable insights for clinical practice.
Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.
