Clinical Orthopedic Examination of a Child / edited by Nirmal Raj Gopinathan

"As always said "Children are not young adults", and the examination of a child needs to be emphasized with special consideration to physiologic differences in a growing child. This book focuses on pediatric examination, a topic not much explored in the regular orthopedic texts. The difficulty of a child to express the symptoms needs to be kept in mind during examination, thus the examining surgeon has to be very observant in picking up even minor details that could help in diagnosis. This book serves as an essential companion to orthopedic surgeons, general practitioners and professionals as well as be helpful in pediatric orthopedic clinics."
