Screws and Plates – Principles of Internal Fixation and Surgical Instrumentation (2014) Daniel Koch

Description

This text examines the historical and modern principles of long bone fracture treatment in small animals, contrasting conventional compression techniques (lag screws and plates) aimed at absolute stability with biological fracture healing methods. It provides a detailed overview of the necessary surgical instrumentation, including instruments used for surgical approach (retractors, levers) and fracture reduction (bone clamps).
