This is a reference on the management of acquired and congenital spinal disordes in the paediatric patient. Some of the world's foremost experts provide a complete account of the developmental anatomy and biomechanics, epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, prognosis, and surgical and nonsurgical management of rheumatologic, metabolic, endocrinologic, neuromuscular, degenerative, neoplastic, infectious, and trauma-related disorders of the pediatric cervical, thoracic, thoracolumbar, and lumbar spine and the sacrum and coccyx. Complementing the text are more than 1000 CT scans, MR images, radiographs, and intraoperative drawings and photographs. Of special note are the detailed analyses of all current surgical approaches, techniques, and instrumentation systems and discussions of anesthesia and complications of surgery.
