Author Description

Developed by the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America and published by AAOS, this new edition explores basic science, trauma, spine, and upper and lower extremity conditions, with a new section on sports-related topics. OKU: Pediatrics 4 focuses on surgical and nonsurgical management of pediatric orthopaedic conditions. A wealth of information is condensed in this concentrated guide to new techniques, new approaches, and current controversies. Chapters on early-onset scoliosis, bone and joint infection, pediatric anesthesia, and principles of pediatric trauma make this volume particularly relevant.
