About this work
Description
There are many childhood disorders which affect the hip and its development, many of which can have lifelong sequelae affecting the adult's way of life. This book brings together the authoritative opinions of a number of experienced clinicians about these disorders, discussing their aetiology, presentation, diagnosis, treatment and the range of outcomes. It is for all those who manage the health of children; primarily paediatricians, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, nurses and orthotists. Although the majority of authors are orthopedic surgeons, this definitive volume focuses on what every clinician should know about the developing hip joint.
