Although musculoskeletal problems are the second most common reason to visit a doctor, many physicians feel uncomfortable when confronted with such problems as "shoulder pain," "knee pain," and "foot pain." In Pocket Guide to Musculoskeletal Diagnosis, practicing physical medicine and rehabilitation physician Grant Cooper, MD, provides a concise step-by-step approach to confidently establishing a working clinical diagnosis and finding appropriate treatment options for the most common musculoskeletal ailments. Organized by body region and written with superb clarity, this compact guide details the important questions to ask in history taking, the physical examination maneuvers appropriate for each pathology, the possible explanations and additional tests needed to diagnose the condition, and the most up-to-date treatment options available. The author offers clear explanations why each step in the history and physical examination is performed and discusses the basic pathophysiological processes involved. The ailments covered include neck and shooting arm pain; shoulder pain; elbow pain; wrist and hand pain; low back, hip, and shooting leg pain; knee pain; ankle pain; and foot pain. Numerous high-quality photographs illustrate the correct hands-on methods for physical examination of the patient. Comprehensive yet concise, the Pocket Guide to Musculoskeletal Diagnosis offers all orthopedists, physiatrists, family physicians, internists, and physical therapists a step-by-step approach to taking a history and performing a targeted physical examination for musculoskeletal problems, as well as their confident management.

Pendant longtemps, la chirurgie de l'avant-pied a présenté des inconvénients, notamment une période postopératoire douloureuse et la correction incomplète des déformations. Cependant, depuis 1991 en France, Louis Samuel Barouk et son équipe, dont Pierre Barouk, ont contribué à la mise au point de techniques qui ont amélioré de façon significative la période postopératoire et les résultats. Il s'agit de l'ostéotomie scarf, de l'ostéotomie du gros orteil, des ostéotomies de Weil des métatarsiens latéraux, et du développement du système de libération proximale des gastrocnémiens. Parallèlement, les auteurs ont développé des implants et une instrumentation spécifique à cette chirurgie de l'avant-pied. Cette édition française de Reconstruction de l'avant-pied est en fait un atlas qui peut se parcourir comme une bande dessinée; le texte est très concis, au profit d'une abondante illustration, les figures se succédant chronologiquement pour chaque technique ou pathologie. Les thèmes suivants sont particulièrement développés: la correction des désordres sévères de l'avant-pied avec conservation articulaire incluant les avant-pieds rhumatoïdes, l'intérêt du respect du point «ms» pour le raccourcissement du métatarsien qui est la clé de cette correction. A été aussi précisé le système de correction des griffes d'orteils, évitant ainsi les classiques arthroplasties ou arthrodèses de l'interphalangienne proximale. Enfin, un paragraphe sur l'ostéotomie de Weil de décompression du premier métatarsien a été ajouté. Cet ouvrage est accompagné de deux CD: l'un illustrant les techniques utilisées au moyen de vidéos mais aussi d'animations en 2D ou 3D (Ce CD est resté en version anglaise comme pour la précédente édition car il est très facile à lire et à regarder); l'autre propose des figures, libres de droits, qui peuvent être très utiles pour des présentations ou des articles. Dans ce livre, les auteurs cherchent à faire partager leur passion pour la chirurgie de l'avant-pied et sa constante amélioration, la mission de cette spécialité orthopédique étant pour eux tout autant la correction des déformations et l'amélioration du chaussage que l'esthétique.

Don't miss it! The second, completely revised and expanded edition of the successful surgical manual on minimally invasive spine surgery includes 51 chapters (including more than 20 new chapters) covering all current minimally invasive techniques in spine surgery. A complete survey of all microsurgical and endoscopic techniques with a special focus on semi-invasive injection techniques for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in low back pain is given. The clear chapter structure with terminology, history, surgical principles, advantages/disadvantages, indications, access principles, complications, and results facilitates navigation through the manual. Topics include the principles of microsurgical and endoscopic treatment, spinal navigation and computer-assisted surgery, minimally invasive reconstruction, fusion, dynamic stabilization in fractures, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, low back pain and deformities. The didactic presentation of surgical steps makes the reader familiar with all types of new minimally invasive techniques in clinical use or still in ongoing clinical trials such as minimally invasive spine arthroplasty.

Motion analysis as introduced 2 years ago on a national basis effectively identifies individual functional disorders and provides a means for describing them on the basis of a score. Individual therapy planning is possible. More treatment tends to produce better function scores and thus helps to lower the strain on the joint. Further study is required in order to determine whether this reduces the incidence of bleeding. Knee function is age-dependent. Height, weight and sporting activity seem to be influencing factors.Demeanor,pain,fatigue and parental motivation do not seem to have an impact. The roll-and-glide pattern is not age-dependent and probably shows functional abnormalities of the knee.Functional benchmarking of the sites is possible but d- ficult because each site selects the children differently.Age differences also render an overall assessment difficult. Some sites performed negative screening so as to only test children with more severe problems,while other sites performed no such selection.In other sites,the only children to show up for motion analysis were those with well informed parents and who are always involved in all the other activities on offer too.
