Authors: Ann L Johnson, John EF Houlton, Rico Vannini

Published in 2006
(available only in pdf format)
530 pages
450 Illustrations
AO Teaching Videos and Animations on DVD-ROM

 

This book joins a long line of well-established AO textbooks for the small animal veterinarian. It differs from its predecessors in a number of ways and, as such, seeks new horizons.The contributors, selected for their expertise and knowledge of the subject, provide the reader with practical advice on the management of the commonly occurring fractures in the dog, and cat.

The text is lavishly illustrated with full-color illustrations, intraoperative pictures and radiographs. A comprehensive description of each procedure is complemented by animations and sequences from AO Teaching Videos on a DVD-ROM.

In a departure from previous AO textbooks, chapters provide advice on preoperative preparation, perioperative pain control, anesthesia, radiography, postoperative care, and rehabilitation.

New concepts have been embraced and considerably more emphasis is placed on alternative methods of fixation to bone plating. The indications for biological fracture fixation and anatomical reconstruction are addressed, with illustrated examples of both techniques appearing throughout the text.
