The new edition of this comprehensive classic continues to offer the latest developments in the mechanisms of injury, the biomechanics of fracture reduction, and an understanding of the potential for healing based upon vascular anatomy while correlating anatomy, pathology and radiography of children's skeletal injuries with a plethora of photographs and line drawings. An invaluable resource to pediatric orthopedic surgeons, emergency room physicians, orthopedic trauma surgeons and residents and fellows.
