Overview

Operative Orthopaedics is a definitive and comprehensive guide to elective orthopaedic surgery for trainees preparing for FRCS and surgeons at MRCS level. With the emphasis on techniques employed and the reasoning behind them, this book is both a practical instruction manual and a revision tool.

Surgery of the upper limb, lower limb and spine is explained from preoperative planning through technique and potential complications.

Each chapter concludes with key references and sample viva voce questions and answers to extend and reinforce learning.
