Addressing trauma, deformity, degeneration, oncology and infections, both in pediatric and adult patients, it provides a broad overview of this complex surgical discipline. Subdivided into four parts, each chapter exhaustively addresses a clinical problem, ranging from signs and symptoms, physical examination through differential diagnoses and classification to treatment options, possible complications and follow-ups. In appendix the reader will find relevant classifications, indexes, questionnaires and quality of life assessments. Didactical videos complement the book illustrating essential basic spine surgery techniques in the daily practice. Written by an international panel of experts this practical and handy guide is an invaluable tool for trainees of both orthopedic surgery and neurosurgery, spine fellows, and junior spine surgeons.
The Growing Spine
There has been significant progress in the field of spinal disorders in very young children over the past two decades. However, the treatment of such conditions remains challenging due to the age of the patient, different etiologies, associated morbidities and the progressive nature of the deformity. Depending on the etiology of the deformity, these children are often cared for by multiple specialists including pediatricians, pulmonologists, pediatric orthopedists or orthopedic spine surgeons, pediatric surgeons, pediatric neurosurgeons, neurologists and oncologists. Health professionals in all of the mentioned disciplines are involved in the management of these patients, which is why compil...

It also includes unique sections dedicated to pediatric implants, implant removal, metallurgy and bone grafts. I...
Clubfoot and Vertical Talus
This unique book opens with a presentation of the current etiology and pathogenesis of clubfoot and vertical talus. Practical approaches to these pediatric congenital disorders are discussed. It includes in-depth discussions of the various age-appropriate treatment strategies along with genetic research for children of all ages. Treatment of deformity recurrences and non-isolated conditions will be explored. Additional chapters cover techniques in both initial treatment and the treatment of clubfoot and vertical talus relapse. Bracing and physical therapy strategies will be discussed. Written and edited by leading researchers and clinicians, this text is essential for all treating pediatric foot and ankle conditions.
Textbook of Musculoskeletal Disorders
This textbook presents the full spectrum of musculoskeletal disorders, covering their definitions, epidemiology, physiopathology, diagnosis and treatment. Ranging from fractures, through infections and tumors, to dystrophies, the authors provide an up-to-date overview of the methodologies used in the diagnosis and management of common orthopedic conditions. The content is divided into several sections: disorders are grouped by typology in the opening section, and subsequently grouped anatomically, offering readers a quick and convenient reference guide to fundamental concepts in everyday orthopedic care. Written by an international panel of experts, it offers a valuable asset for students and residents approaching the study of orthopedics, pediatric orthopedics, sports medicine, rheumatology and rehabilitation.

Fractures and Deformities of the Lower Extremity in Children and Adolescents: Etiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment
Lower extremity fractures and deformities in children and adolescents are a heterogeneous group of conditions caused by a variety of diseases, ranging from the hip joint to the foot. While some are caused by known trauma, others may be a consequence of developmental disorders or mutations in various genes. The presenting symptoms and signs may vary from cosmetic findings to the dysfunction of the limb, except fractures. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, there is still a lack of understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of many of these conditions. Furthermore, there are ongoing challenges in the diagnosis and treatment of rare or complex fractures and deformities of the lower extremity. To address these challenges, the present Research Topic aims to call for manuscripts describing unique cases with follow-up and treatment, as well as studies examining the outcome and prognosis. This will increase awareness of these conditions and lead to improved diagnosis and treatment for children and adolescents.
