Sommario/riassunto

Ideal for orthopaedic, pathology, and radiology residents and practitioners, the updated third edition of Orthopaedic Pathology is a comprehensive, practical guide to diagnosing musculoskeletal disorders, offering details on the pathologic and radiologic characteristics of all bone and joint diseases. Highlighted by more than 1,700 high-quality illustrations, it focuses on helping you reach an accurate diagnosis for virtually any orthopaedic disorder you're likely to encounter, including cysts, arthritis, synovial lesions, fibrous lesions,



metastatic cancer, metabolic bone disease such as osteoporosis and Paget's disease, fractures, osteomyelitis, tumors and tumor-like lesions and developmental bone disorders. A separate section on soft-tissue pathology discusses meniscal injuries, bursa, ligaments, and tendons.
