SPINAL INJURIES AND CONDITIONS IN YOUNG ATHLETE...

Spinal Injuries and Conditions in Young Athletes provides a comprehensive  in-depth review of
the mechanisms and management of back injuries and problems occurring in this ever-growing and
active population. Led by Dr. Lyle Micheli and his co-editors  an award-winning group of
orthopedists discusses and explores common adolescent spine injuries and procedures  in
addition to breakthroughs in gene therapy  tissue engineering  and complex operations. As spine
surgery is among the most complex and challenging procedures performed in orthopedics  special
considerations and procedures are required in pediatric populations. Since many corrective
surgeries run the risk of arthritis later in life  particular efforts must be made in young
populations to prevent future injury in a child's adolescence and young adulthood while
maximizing return-to-play potential. Chapters cover acute spinal injuries  concussions  overuse
injuries  spinal malformations  tumors  infections and inflammatory diseases across the range
of athletics  including swimming and combat sports. Spinal Injuries and Conditions in Young
Athletes? provides an immeasurable guide for back surgery in pediatric populations and will be
a go-to resource for practitioners and residents in pediatric orthopedics and sports medicine.
