Pediatric Orthopedics in Practice

---

The specialty of pediatric orthopaedics involves a vast
array of primary and secondary musculoskeletal condi
tions influenced by growth and development. Writing a
comprehensive textbook is a somewhat herculean task
which Fritz Hefti and his group have done with wit and
style, making this book both instructive and readable. The
sometimes humorous, cartoon-like illustrations are remi
niscent of those drawn by Mercer Rang. These drawings
emphasize important facts, as does the bold colored print
throughout the textbook.
As near as I can tell, all important aspects of pediatric
orthopaedic conditions are covered in this textbook. Each
new disease or section begins with a discussion of etiol
ogy, complemented by a full description of diagnostic,
historical and physical findings. Diagnostic studies are
recommended with an eye towards the efficient use of
resources in »working up« a patient. Recommended treat
ment is outlined with frequent discussion of personal,
Basel, Swiss, or European experience. Reference to the
Basel Tumor Database and other datasets is helpful to the
reader.
Whether you are searching for information on tumors,
regional pediatric orthopaedic conditions or genetic dis
eases, you will find it in this textbook. In addition to being
a reference source for answering a question about a spe
cific disease, one can read the text in a journey through
pediatric orthopaedics as it is written in a stimulating and
entertaining style rather than simply a listing of facts.
I’ve known Fritz Hefti for 25 years and have ad
mired his thoughtful approach to pediatric orthopaedics.
Through this textbook, others will have an opportunity
to be exposed to the wit and wisdom of an outstanding
Swiss pediatric orthopaedic surgeon.
