The textbook "Principles of Surgical Treatment of Fractures" analyzes the why, where, when, and how in the modern management of fractures, including both open and closed methods, considering them as complementary forms of treatment.

The first edition was a necessary extension of the more technically oriented manual of AO. Featuring rich illustrations with clinical and radiological examples, it has established itself as a reference work.

The second edition updates the description of the problems and treatment methods for specific fractures, based on the experience of the past 7 years. New chapters on the hip, spine, wrist, heel, and foot have made this manual even more comprehensive.

The processes of decision-making, preoperative planning, surgical techniques, and postoperative management are covered, providing the surgeon with advice on managing fractures in everyday practice.
