Sports Injuries in Children and Adolescents-A Case-Based Approach

This introduction to sports injuries in children and adolescents is written in a user-friendly format and takes into
account the fact that sports injuries in the pediatric population are not an easy topic for non-pediatric orthopedic
surgeons, pediatricians, and non-pediatric radiologists. The book is divided into five chapters on musculoskeletal
particularities in children, head and spine trauma, muscle strains and avulsion injuries, bone fractures, overuse
injuries, and miscellanea. Each of these chapters comprises ten cases, and each case study includes up to four
figures,
a description of the clinical case, a review of the pathophysiology of the condition described in the case, and a
final
section on imaging findings. Sports Injuries in Children and Adolescents is a case-based book aimed at pediatricians,
pediatric orthopedic surgeons, and radiologists.​
