Main description:

The new edition of this comprehensive, two volume set presents clinicians and trainees with the latest advances in orthopaedic surgery.

Volume One begins with sections covering bone anatomy, physiology, pathology and diseases, followed by joint structure, function and related disorders, and basic sciences, with subsequent sections covering more specific topics such as paediatric orthopaedics, sports medicine, and shoulder.

Volume Two continues the discussion on regional orthopaedics, covering the hip, spine, hand, foot and ankle.

The second edition has been fully revised and includes new techniques such as stem cell banking, mechanobiologics, 3D bioprinting, metabolomics, and more.

More complex and advanced concepts are presented in bullet point format and the book covers many questions asked in postgraduate examinations.

A primer for orthopaedic trauma describing common fractures and their classification is included in this new edition, and 2500 clinical photographs, diagrams, tables and boxes further enhance learning.
