Book Description:

Treating broken bones in children is different than treating bone in adults. Childrens periosteum has a rich blood supply which speeds up the healing process and may prevent residual healing deformity. On the other hand, their growth plate is an area to be watched carefully since it is sensitive to trauma. Scott H. Kozin, MD, from Shriners Hospital in Philadelphia, has meticulously edited chapters youll find informative and instructive. Youll find chapters on how to treat fractures of the scaphoid, elbow, wrist, fingers and thumb, treating deformities, palsies and more. Key words: Volkmans ischemic contracture, nerve palsies, upper extremity fractures, wrist deformities, supracondylar and condylar humerus, distal radius, phalanges, thumb ray, scaphoid
