Features: This book is compiled by Professor Christophe Oberlin from the Upper Limb Surgery Department of Bichat Hospital in Paris, France. It systematically introduces the phylogeny of the upper limb, surgical approaches, upper limb flaps, upper limb fractures, nerve and tendon injuries, repair and reconstruction of (devastating injuries), tissue regrafting, various bone and joint diseases, and the diagnosis and treatment of other upper limb disorders. The chapters on wrist injuries and nerve diseases are described in greater detail, with content derived from my own practical experience, which helps guide the treatment of these conditions. On this basis, I hope readers can identify different types of intercarpal alignment disorders and perform basic management. Additionally, the book provides a comprehensive introduction to the grading system for hand guidance and thumb function, laying a solid foundation for the staged reconstruction of paralyzed hands.
