Now in a completely revised and expanded fifth edition including a new content, Essentials of Orthopedic Surgery remains the ideal reference for students of the musculoskeletal system. Through its many photographs and illustrations, concise text, practical format and breadth of scope, this book guides its readers through the basics of orthopedic surgery and common orthopedic disorders in adults and children. 

Following a review of the basic science of bone and cartilage metabolism, a brand new chapter on biomechanics and biomaterials presents the current state of the art. Subsequent chapters cover musculoskeletal infection, tumors and trauma, then proceed anatomically to each joint and its disorders, with a separate chapter discussing unique considerations with pediatric patients. Each chapter focuses on decision-making, including algorithms based on standards and guidelines to help readers formulate both diagnostic and treatment plans, and plentiful figures and tables expand and enhance the overall presentation.

Both timely and practical, Essentials of Orthopedic Surgery, Fifth Edition is the perfect book for young surgeons, residents, students, nurses, and physician assistants to learn or review key topics in orthopedic surgery.
