Description
Established worldwide as the "gold-standard" reference on pediatric fractures, Rockwood and Wilkins' Fractures in Children is now in its thoroughly revised, updated Sixth Edition. The world's foremost authorities provide comprehensive coverage of all bone and joint injuries seen in children, thoroughly discuss alternative methods for treating each injury, and present their own preferred methods. This edition has a more international group of contributors. The improved art program features 2,400 illustrations, many of which are new. Pearls and pitfalls have been added to the authors' preferred method presentations, and coverage of complications has been expanded.
