Written by rising stars in the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society, this volume of our Orthopaedic Surgery Essentials Series presents all the information residents need during foot and ankle surgery rotations. It can easily be read cover to cover during a rotation or used for quick reference before a patient workup or operation. The user-friendly, visually stimulating format features ample illustrations, algorithms, bulleted lists, charts, and tables.

Coverage begins with anatomy, biomechanics, physical examination, and orthotics and proceeds to the specific problems encountered in the foot and ankle clinic. A chapter on arthroscopy is also included.
