The foundation of fracture fixation resides with metal implants that provide stability, restore length, obtain alignment, maintain a reduction, and provide the body the opportunity to repair itself. In recent years, the focus has shifted from simply "repairing" fractures to "healing" them. Orthobiologics: Improving Fracture Care Through Science reviews the growing role of orthobiologics in fracture care and offers orthopaedic surgeons strategies for choosing "graft" material when confronted with difficult fractures. The text provides case studies, algorithms, and an overview of this complex, dynamic field.
