Providing a concise approach to the subject, the new edition of
Lecture Notes: Orthopaedics and Fractures reflects recent
changes to medical education and includes new management
techniques. Divided into two major sections, 'General Principles'
covers form and function, fractures, trauma and musculo-skeletal
disorders; while 'Regional Orthopaedics' covers the examination of
and conditions affecting individual regions of the body i.e. foot
and ankle, spine and trunk. This ensures the content is integrated
to allow better and easier navigation.
Featuring an extensive collection of X-rays and photographs of
orthopaedic conditions, Lecture Notes: Orthopaedics and
Fractures is ideal for any medical students, junior doctors,
nurses or allied health professionals who want a core introduction
to this important specialty.
