Main description:

The book adequately covered each region, from anatomy to the latest advances in surgical management, with a lot of emphasis placed on basic principles and clinical examination. This book eliminates the need to refer to a separate book on clinical skills. It addressed controversies without bias and the sections on 'Recent Advances' is updated with current literature.

A complete guide for orthopedics students.
Covers every topic region-wise like upper limb, lower limb and spine, etc. in detail, encompassing anatomy, pathophysiology, clinicoradiological presentation and management from basics to recent advances.
Contains chapters on recent topics and newer modalities such as newbearing materials, stem cell, laser, HIV and PET scan, which are not covered in any other single textbook.
In this edition, certain new topics, such as mechanobiology, metabolomics; procedures like arthroscopy and arthroplasty, and important topics like management of associated chest and abdominal blunt and penetrating injuries in addition to musculoskeletal trauma in a motor vehicle accident victims; soft tissue coverage in orthopedics and scope and limitation of amputation, have been written by experts in those fields.
Over 2,000 clinical photographs, line diagrams and illustrations are included for easy understanding.
Every topic is covered in detail without being unduly lengthy or tiring.
Text is written in lucid language and comprehensive in nature.
