Description

Developed by orthopaedic surgeons, paediatric orthopaedic surgeons and paediatricians, internal medicine physicians, rheumatologists, and family physicians, this newly revised edition updates the original, extremely well-received "Essentials", introduced in 1997 and praised as the best book of its kind. Physicians can find quick, comprehensive guidance to more than 300 musculoskeletal conditions in the nine problem-base sections: general orthopaedics; shoulder; elbow and forearm; hand and wrist; hip and thigh; knee and lower leg; foot and ankle; spine; and paediatric orthopaedics. New chapters include information on the care of elderly patients, amputations, arthritis of the elbow, overuse syndrome of the hand and wrist, masses of the toe and ankle, and more. Every section offers clearly illustrated, step-by-step presentations on conducting physical examinations and diagnostic tests and procedures for treating common injuries.
