AO Principles of Equine Osteosynthesis 1st Edition by G E Fackelman,J A Auer,D M Nunamaker,L R Bramlage,D W Richardson,M D Markel,B von Salis ISBN 3131166711 978-3131166715

This book contains all the latest and best information on large animal osteosynthesis.

The CD-ROM gives you easy access to the full AO ASIF Knowledge Base. With simple mouseclicks you can switch from text to figures to animation and to the AO ASIF teaching videos. This is ideal for preoperative planning, allowing you to develop a surgical strategy by working with standardized bones and instruments presented on the screen.

The World Wide Web can be accessed via mouseclick, allowing you to scan all current literature.
