Publisher's Synopsis
The latest book in the Postgraduate Orthopaedics series brings together the information that every trainee needs to know when faced with paediatric cases in their clinical practice and the FRCS (Tr and Orth) examination. The content is organised according to body regions, with step-by-step guides to common paediatric orthopaedic operations. Practice examination questions help readers test their own understanding, and many clinical photographs, charts and radiographs are included to explain important concepts. The concise, evidence-based chapters are written by practising paediatric orthopaedic surgeons to reflect the core knowledge expected of a newly appointed consultant - the set standard and reference criteria for passing the FRCS (Tr and Orth) - maximising the chances of examination success. This is the essential revision guide for the paediatric component of the FRCS (Tr and Orth), as well as the European Board of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, FRACS (Orth), FRCSC (Orth) and the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery examinations.
