    This newly updated and expanded second edition brings together the information that every trainee needs to know when faced with paediatric cases in their clinical practice and the FRCS (Tr and Orth) examination, as well as the European Board of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, FRACS (Orth), FRCSC (Orth) and the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery examinations. The content is organised according to body regions, with step-by-step guides to common paediatric orthopaedic operations. This new edition includes colour illustrations, additional clinical photographs, charts and radiographs, and updated management guidelines.
