A Clinical Atlas: Variations of the Bones of the Hands and Feet

Excerpt from A Clinical Atlas: Variations of the Bones of the Hands and FeetFor many years I have devoted myself to the study of variations in man, especially to those of the spine and of the bones of the hand and foot. The importance of these in the practice of surgery becomes clearer day by day. This Atlas has been prepared for the use of the practitioner. Some variations are discussed which are of interest to the orthopaedist, but attention has been given chiefly to those which may be expected to appear in skiagraphs taken after an injury and which may suggest a fracture to the unwary.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
