Description: Recent decades have seen a drastic evolution in the recognition and treatment of tumors of the hand, wrist, and peripheral nerves, particularly with the rise of new diagnostic tools and procedures. A team approach has now evolved, so orthopedic, hand and micro-surgeons will need to liaise with their colleagues in oncology, imaging, and pathology in planning and implementing the appropriate surgical treatment for their patients. This text covers the anatomic, surgical, and oncologic considerations which all involved need to be aware. It also features the data of statistic value amassed by some of the leading studies and institutions in the field.
