USDThe latest book in the Postgraduate Orthopaedics series brings together the information that every trainee needs to know when faced with paediatric cases in their clinical practice and the FRCS (Tr & Orth) examination. The content is organised according to body regions, with step-by-step guides to common paediatric orthopaedic operations. Practice examination questions help readers test their own understanding, and many clinical photographs, charts and radiographs are included to explain important concepts. The concise, evidence-based chapters are written by practicing paediatric orthopaedic surgeons to reflect the core knowledge expected of a newly appointed consultant – the set standard and reference criteria for passing the FRCS (Tr & Orth) – maximising the chances of examination success. This is the essential revision guide for the paediatric component of the FRCS (T r& Orth), as well as the European Board of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, FRACS (Orth), FRCSC (Orth) and the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery examinations.
- 'Exam-corner' gives candidates examples of how the questions will be structured in their exams, serving as excellent revision material
- Includes practical, step-by-step guides to the management of common paediatric orthopaedic problems
- One-stop resource for core knowledge and evidence-based best-practice guidelines, written by practising orthopaedic surgeons drawing on a wealth of clinical experience
Reviews & endorsements
"The text is clear and concise. Not only outlining the history and format of the examination and providing some mock examination material for candidates to get a taste of how the examination is carried out, it goes the extra mile by giving helpful advice on performance psychology and even dress code, for examination success. Highly recommended."
