JBJS Chapman’s Comprehensive Orthopaedic Surgery is an indispensable resource for practicing orthopaedic surgeons, residents, fellows, and physiatrists.
In addition to the total evaluation and workup of the patient, the step-by-step descriptions of >1,500 surgical procedures are bulleted for clarity with “tips and tricks.”
The text is richly illustrated with >13,000 drawings, images, charts, tables, videos, and algorithms. The book is organized into 12 comprehensive sections consisting of multiple chapters. The first 3 sections focus on principles of musculoskeletal surgery and medicine; the preoperative, operative, and perioperative treatment of specific fractures, malunions, dislocations, and nonunions; and the management of infectious, metabolic, and neurological disorders.
The next 8 sections focus on specific subspecialties, including the hand, wrist, and forearm (including microsurgery); shoulder and elbow; oncology and amputations; sports injuries and arthroscopy; foot and ankle; hip and knee reconstruction, spine disorders; and pediatric disorders. The final section focuses on physical medicine and rehabilitation.
