This is a guide to hand surgery aimed at orthopaedic and plastic surgeons in training and hand surgeons in training and practice. It covers such topics as burns, tendon repair, arthritis, carpal, bone and joint injuries and replantation and revascularization. The authors have drawn on practical clinical experience and personal research and present an overview of not just the "how" of hand surgery, but also the "when" and "why". They discuss the importance of proper assessment, the application of technical knowledge for diagnosis and treatment and the necessary rehabilitation to obtain maximum function and cosmesis.
