Texts???

Orthopaedic Secrets 2nd ed. by Brown - good for the pimp Qs.

Surgical Exposures in Orthopaedics by Hoppenfeld-for the OR.
Also search this site for old posts.

Richard-

Fundamentals of Orthopaedics by Brinker and Miller is a great entry level text that I really enjoyed, and it helped me tremendously during my ortho rotations:


Also, Netter's concise Atlas or Orthopaedic Anatomy is a new, small book that fits in the white coat easily, and has great pics and clinically relevant material.

Hope this helps

i'm about to start a pedi ortho rotation. does anyone know a good pedi ortho book? thanks in advance.

Go to the library and check out "Lovell and Winter's Pediatric Orthopedics" It is a two volume set, but provides farely short chapters on the majority of the stuff you'll see on a peds ortho rotation. I wouldn't recommend reading it from cover to cover, but to read selected chapters after you figure out what you'rs seeing on the rotation.
