Documenting the experience gained by the International Committee of the Red Cross, this volume addresses the management of war inflicted limb wounds whether in the admission room, on the operating table, or in the ward. With a clear text and numerous color photographs and other illustrations, it guides the surgeon through the understanding of war wounds, his role in their management, the complications and difficulties encountered, and the rehabilitation of the patient.
