Pediatric Musculoskeletal Infections
Pediatric musculoskeletal infections are common globally and represent about 1-2% of all pediatric hospital admissions in the developed world and about 10-20% of admissions in the developing countries. If untreated or treated inadequately, pediatric bone and joint infections can cause significant mortality and morbidity. The functional and economic burden to the family and community at large also presents a significant public health problem. This book serves as an evidence-based, comprehensive review of the current concepts for the early diagnosis and management of pediatric musculoskeletal infections. Currently, there are no comprehensive, easily accessible books on this topic. This first o...
Hardikar's Orthopedic Operations
This text and atlas is a complete guide to the latest advances in orthopaedic surgical procedures. Divided into ten sections, the book begins with paediatric orthopaedics and congenital conditions. The following chapters cover surgical techniques for disorders in different parts of the musculoskeletal system. The final sections examine bone tumours and plastic surgery. The comprehensive text includes discussion on new orthopaedic procedures for conditions that were previously considered to be inoperable such as congenital pseudarthrosis, shortening of lower limbs, ankylosed hip or knee, and gross deformities of the spine. The book is highly illustrated with more than 3000 clinical and surgical photographs, diagrams and tables. Key points Complete guide to latest advances in orthopaedic surgical procedures Covers surgical techniques for disorders in all sections of the musculoskeletal system Includes discussion on new procedures for conditions previously considered inoperable Highly illustrated with more than 3000 photographs, diagrams and tables
Neurodisability and Community Child Health
Containing concise, updated, and easy-to-use summaries on a comprehensive range of clinical scenarios and conditions encountered by paediatricians and multi-disciplinary professionals in their everyday practice, this new edition of Neurodisability and Community Child Health has been substantially revised to be the ideal companion for anyone working with children.
Instructional Course Lectures: Volume 73
Developed in partnership with the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) and edited by Ronald A. Navarro, MD, FAAOS, FAOA (editor) and Carolyn M. Hettrich, MD, MPH, FAAOS (assistant editor), Instructional Course Lectures, Volume 73 offers current, clinically relevant information across a broad spectrum of orthopaedic topics. These lectures were written by the orthopaedic surgeons who presented at the 2023 AAOS Annual Meeting. This all-new volume covers topics such as: • From Platelet-Rich Plasma to Mesenchymal Stem Cells: Cartilage Regeneration With Orthobiologics • Patient Reported Outcome Measures – How to Get the Most Out of Them and Mitigate Health Care Disparities • Leveraging Artificial Intelligence and Digital Health to Address Health-Related Social Needs and Optimize Risk-Based Value in Orthopaedic Surgery • Peri-articular Injection and Peripheral Nerve Blocks With Standard Agents • Management of Acute Diabetic Ankle Fractures • And many more
Diagnosis of Musculoskeletal Tumors and Tumor-like Conditions
This book, now in a second revised edition, casts light on the often complex diagnosis of musculoskeletal tumors and tumor-like conditions by drawing on the experience of the Rizzoli Orthopedic Institute during more than 100 years of treatment and research in the field. The different entities are described from a multidisciplinary perspective, highlighting clinical, radiological, and histological correlations. Particular emphasis is placed on differential diagnosis, which often needs to take into account nontumoral conditions. The recent identification of further significant biological and genetic features, and the impact of these discoveries on the classification of round cell tumors, vascular lesions, and spindle/pleomorphic entities in bone, is also extensively discussed. The Rizzoli case archive dates back to September 1900 and contains the original material relating to more than 29,000 bone lesions and 11,000 soft tissue lesions. It is a fabulously rich resource, and this book will be invaluable for pathologists, radiologists, and clinicians at all levels of experience.
Principles of Deformity Correction
Written in an accessible and instructive format, this richly illustrated text covers the analysis, planning, and treatment of lower limb deformities, with a view to teaching deformity correction. A foundation of understanding normal alignment is presented, using new nomenclature that is easy to remember and can even be derived without memorization. The work offers detailed information on deformities and malalignment, radiographic assessment, mechanical and anatomic axis planning, osteotomies, and hardware considerations. The part dealing with planning is further facilitated via an exercise workbook and an animated CD-ROM which is available separately. The methods taught are simple and intuitive.
Pediatric Osteoarticular Infections
This concise guide brings orthopaedic surgeons and paediatricians up to date with the latest developments in the management of bone and joint (osteoarticular) infections in children. Beginning with an introduction to the causes and development of osteoarticular disorders, the following chapters discuss their clinical features, laboratory diagnosis and treatment options, both surgical and conservative. Each chapter describes a different infection and its management, with a separate chapter examining drug-resistant osteoarticular tuberculosis and co-infection with HIV. The final section discusses advances and research in the condition. Key points Concise guide to the diagnosis and management of bone and joint infections in children Each chapter discusses a different infection and covers conservative and surgical treatment Final chapter describes new advances and research Includes more than 150 full colour images and illustrations
The Growing Spine
Spinal disorders in very young children may be caused by a variety of conditions. The treatment of such conditions is often challenging due to the age of the patient and the progressive nature of the deformity. There also may be associated problems such as congenital anomalies, respiratory insufficiency, and neurological problems. Depending on the etiology of the deformity, these children are often cared for by multiple specialists including pediatricians, pediatric orthopaedists or orthopaedic spine surgeons, neurologists, pediatric surgeons, pediatric neurosurgeons, oncologists, and/or pulmonologists. Health professionals in all of the mentioned disciplines are involved in the management of these patients, which is why compiling a comprehensive textbook that is not limited to orthopedic specialists is essential. This textbook will effectively help to standardize the care of these patients. Furthermore, other professionals such as nurses, physical therapists and healthcare professionals in training are usually not familiar with these conditions and are in need of a reference book to consult when caring for children with spinal deformities.
Paediatric Orthopaedics
This book provides a refined clinical guide for evidence-based recommendations in paediatric orthopaedics. Focusing on specific body regions (hip, knees, ankle and feet, spine, shoulder, elbow and wrist and hand) this resource addresses clinical questions related to conditions in these areas. A background section in each chapter sets the scene for the best available practice and also appraises the evidence for its strength and weakness. At the end of each chapter, the authors’ provide recommendations on future research. Evidence-Based Paediatric Orthopaedics: The Best Answers to Clinical Questions has been edited by a team of surgeons with a great interest in evidence-based practice who have brought together an international experts to produce this timely book. A wide spectrum audience including paediatric orthopaedic surgeons, trauma surgeons, orthopaedic residents, emergency department doctors, general practitioners and medical students looking for an evidence based approach to paediatric orthopaedics will find this book to be an essential guide for clinical practice.
