This text provides medical students with a comprehensive guide to
the management of common musculoskeletal conditions. Fully illustrated
throughout in color and b&w medical images, photos, and anatomical
drawings, the book offers an integrated approach to history taking and
physical examination and covers relevant anatomy, highlighting the
reasons for the different approaches within the specialties of
orthopedics, trauma, and rheumatology. The first part of the book
addresses the core topics relating to each discipline, with summary
boxes outlining main points related to etiology, pathology,
epidemiology, clinical features, investigations, management, and
prognosis. The second part of the book presents 100 clinical cases to
test problem-solving skills. Additional multiple-choice questions are
available on a companion web site. Written primarily for medical
students, the book is also useful for primary care physicians, nurse
specialists, and other members of the multidisciplinary team dealing
with musculoskeletal problems.
