Classic Papers In Orthopaedics

Orthopedic experts in their field have carefully chosen what they consider to be the key papers in their respective domains. Every paper is carefully described and evaluated by its strengths, weaknesses and its contribution to the field. Papers have been chosen by number of citations, academic importance, articles that have changed our whole way of thinking or that have simply stood the test of time.

Excerpt from Orthopedic Surgery and Other Medical Papers Duval, and Little; especially the brochures of M. Guerin, who has been for some time the leading French orthopedist. The writings of M. Guerin may be fairly criticised, both for the wordiness and obscurity of their style and for their unnecessary bulk; but it does not appear that we have any right to question the accuracy of their statements. On the contrary, we may infer from the late report of the committee appointed by the Academy of Medicine to investigate this point, that there is no ground for supposing the evidence in any way warped or misrepresented.

Classic papers in orthopedics.

Selected References in Trauma and Orthopaedics is an essential study tool for all those preparing for the orthopedic FRCS (Tr & Orth). This work provides a selection of references from the Trauma and Orthopedic literature, which will be of interest to the surgeon preparing for the Intercollegiate Specialty Board examination, and similar end-of training examinations in other countries. It will also be of interest to examiners and trainers who are preparing their trainee colleagues for the examination, as well as providing a literature basis for their own practice. Selected References in Trauma and Orthopaedics presents the classical papers underlying current practice as well as recent publications which have brought about innovation. The references are presented with a brief summary which allows the reader to access a literature review, with the use of online resources. Compiled by examiners, Selected References in Trauma and Orthopaedics will provide candidates with an awareness of the literature which will boost grades and enhance learning ability.

Successfully navigate key topics required to master the FRCS (Tr & Orth) exam with confidence, using this thoroughly revised second edition.

This book provides a refined clinical guide for evidence-based recommendations in paediatric orthopaedics. Focusing on specific body regions (hip, knees, ankle and feet, spine, shoulder, elbow and wrist and hand) this resource addresses clinical questions related to conditions in these areas. A background section in each chapter sets the scene for the best available practice and also appraises the evidence for its strength and weakness. At the end of each chapter, the authors’ provide recommendations on future research. Evidence-Based Paediatric Orthopaedics: The Best Answers to Clinical Questions has been edited by a team of surgeons with a great interest in evidence-based practice who have brought together an international experts to produce this timely book. A wide spectrum audience including paediatric orthopaedic surgeons, trauma surgeons, orthopaedic residents, emergency department doctors, general practitioners and medical students looking for an evidence based approach to paediatric orthopaedics will find this book to be an essential guide for clinical practice.

Developed in partnership with the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) and edited by William M. Ricci, MD, FAAOS and Samir Mehta, MD, FAAOS, Orthopaedic Knowledge Update®: Trauma 6 brings together relevant knowledge and new breakthroughs in orthopaedic trauma treatment and management from the most recent 5 years of orthopaedic and subspecialty literature, as well as core knowledge from previous years.

The field of arthroscopy, originating from Denmark in 1912, has rapidly evolved to diagnose and treat a wide range of musculoskeletal pathologies. Although around for sometime, arthroscopy in the field of orthopedics has traditionally focused on the knee, shoulder, or elbow, as arthroscopy of the hip is technically challenging; the deep structures of the hip, including neurovascular bundles, require specialized training and equipment to access. However, with advances in surgical techniques, hip arthroscopy has become increasingly popular given its ability to treat pathologies with previously poor prognoses such as labral tears, hip arthritis and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). When indicated, hip arthroscopy results in shorter recovery times, low complication rates, and excellent outcomes in quality of life and pain regardless of age, gender or activity level. The purpose of this e-book is to shed light on this expanding field by delving into the common hip pathology femoroacetabular impingement, its clinical relevance, and to explore various surgical techniques and postoperative rehabilitation. It is our hope that this textbook provides valuable knowledge to advance the field of hip arthroscopy, enhance surgical techniques, and ultimately increase the quality of patient care. Enjoy!
