"Medicolegal Reporting in Orthopaedic Trauma, 3rd edition" is a comprehensive guide to the preparation of medicolegal reports. It has been developed to assist the busy medical expert in providing prognostic information following musculoskeletal injuries without having to spend time researching the relevant literature. In this 3rd edition, the editors have retained the original aim of collating data from world literature, and have supplemented this with the addition of review articles on topics of medicolegal interest such as RSI and VWF. "Medicolegal Reporting in Orthopaedic Trauma, 3rd edition" fills the void which has existed in medical literature on the important subject of personal injury litigation, and will be a valuable tool for all orthopaedic surgeons involved in producing medicolegal reports.
