McRae’s Orthopaedic Trauma and Emergency Fracture Management is the essential, best-selling ‘survival guide’ for the orthopaedic surgeon, trainee, resident or practitioner treating injured patients in the Emergency or Orthopaedic Department.
This fourth edition has been extensively updated and rewritten, retaining the essence and underlying principles of McRae’s original book, but with new text and illustrations to ensure it remains at the cutting edge.
This highly regarded book is a companion to McRae’s Elective Orthopaedics, and together these titles provide complete coverage of orthopaedic surgery as relevant to contemporary practice.
