Written in an accessible and instructive format, this richly illustrated text covers the analysis, planning, and treatment of lower limb deformities, with a view to teaching deformity correction. A foundation of understanding normal alignment is presented, using new nomenclature that is easy to remember and can even be derived without memorization. The work offers detailed information on deformities and malalignment, radiographic assessment, mechanical and anatomic axis planning, osteotomies, and hardware considerations. The part dealing with planning is further facilitated via an exercise workbook and an animated CD-ROM which is available separately. The methods taught are simple and intuitive.

This exercise workbook including an animated CD-ROM accompanies "Principles of Deformity Correction", a comprehensive text on the analysis, planning, and treatment of lower limb deformities in an accessible and instructive format. In addition to the book, which is extensively illustrated to avoid confusion and to leave little to the imagination, the planning is further facilitated via the exercise workbook and the animated CD-ROM which are available separately. The methods taught are simple and intuitive and require little memorization. The set of books and the CD are of equal interest to pediatric and adult orthopaedic surgeons.
