This illustrated textbook is an essential and invaluable guide to young clinicians and
researchers of Trauma and Orthopaedics reporting all classification systems which are
currently utilised in the clinical setting. It includes classifications relevant to both
Elective Orthopaedic Practice and Orthopaedic Trauma.Clear graphic illustrations accompany the
description of all different classification schemes in a comprehensive manner together with a
structured presentation of existing clinical evidence. In this manner each chapter of the
different anatomical sites and pathologies assists the decision making of the readers regarding
treatment strategy as well as informed consent of their patients. It is envisaged that this
textbook will be a point of reference not only to the surgeons in training (residents) but also
to senior surgeons and academic clinicians.
