Hip pain is one of the most common reasons for patient visits to
orthopedic, physiatrist, primary care and sports medicine offices.
Most books that cover this topic review it as a chapter within a
larger book on orthopedics as a whole, or they focus on one
specific aspect of hip pathology, such as osteoarthritis. This
practical text is an evidence-based, user-friendly review of the
literature for the breadth of hip pathologies that present to the
busy practitioner. Opening with a review of the relevant anatomy,
subsequent chapters discuss bursitis and tendonitis, labral tears,
impingement syndrome, and osteoarthritis. Additional chapters cover
hip pain in the pediatric patient, sports trauma and fractures, and
rheumatologic and infectious disease considerations. And while
reviewing pathology and its diagnosis and treatment is important,
proceeding through real case studies is extremely valuable in
bringing the diagnosis and treatment of hip pathologies to life,
hence an engaging section of clinical case material rounds out the
presentation. Taken together, A Case-Based Approach to Hip Pain
will be an ideal resource for musculoskeletal medicine
practitioners of all types.
The use of ultrasound guidance to perform diagnostic and
therapeutic injections is growing at a rapid rate, as is the
evidence to support its use. Even with the increased popularity of
ultrasound, there remains a lack of formal training or a standard
reference book. Atlas of Ultrasound Guided Musculoskeletal
Injections fills this void in the literature and will be useful to
physiatrists, orthopedists, rheumatologists, pain medicine and
sports medicine specialists alike. Broken down by anatomic
structure and heavily illustrated, this book is both comprehensive
and instructive. The Editors and their contributors break down the
basics (both the fundamentals of ultrasound to needle visibility
and the role of injections) and explore ultrasound-guided injection
for structures in the shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand, hip and
groin, knee, ankle and foot, and spine. Using a clear, heavily
illustrated format, this book describes the relevant clinical
scenarios and indications for injection, the evidence to support
ultrasound use, relevant local anatomy, injection methods, and
pearls and safety considerations. It will be a valuable reference
for trainees and experienced clinicians alike, for experienced
sonographers or those just starting out.
a comprehensive text that should serve as a general reference for
all involved with boxing. The major focus of the book is geared
towards the neurological aspects of boxing, with an entire section
of the volume devoted to such topics as acute and chronic brain
injury, neuroradiology, neuropsychology, electrophysiology and
epidemiology of brain injury.
