Recenzijos
"Chapters are well illustrated with numerous figures and radiographs to assist readers with understanding locking plate concepts. Compared with other orthopedic surgery textbooks, this book provides a more thorough review of the nuances of multiple commercially available locking plate systems....This book will be a welcome addition to the library of any surgeon or practice where veterinary orthopedic surgery is regularly performed."
