Paediatric Orthopaedics: Core Knowledge and MCQs for FRCS and US Board Examinations

This book aims to condense much of the subject into simple, easy to read mind-maps. Topics covered include: • Hip (DDH, Perthes, SUFE, AVN) • Knee • Foot and ankle (CTEV, pes cavus CVT), • Upper limb (OBPI,CP, congenital hand) • Spine (scoliosis, infection), • Neuromuscular • Limb reconstruction • Trauma • Genetics, skeletal dysplasias Each section has a overview of the subjects, the core knowledge and self-assessment MCQs. Each page is illustrated throughout with over 400 re- producible diagrams. This book covers all the core topics required for success in end-of-training orthopaedic FRCS and Board examinations. The content comes from review articles, traditional texts, notes from exam courses and pearls of wisdom learnt during my time at the largest children’s hospital in Europe. This book will also be useful for non-specialist orthopaedic surgeons, general practitioners, physiotherapists and students.
