Pediatric Orthopaedic Deformities

Pediatric Orthopaedic Deformities is an in-depth and up-to-date review of the relationship between developmental bone biology and its application to understanding the pathobiology of pediatric orthopaedic disorders, diagnostic methods and treatments.

Features
* Treatments are correlated with the pathologic state of the disorder
* Discusses disorders from earliest onset to the final state showing how the altered biology leads to progressively greater clinical deformity
* Initial chapter focuses on development bone biology stressing a broad based approach involving histologic, gene and molecular, and biomechanical features
* Subsequent chapters discuss the pathogenesis of the various deformities, natural history, radiographic and imaging findings and orthopaedic and surgical management
