Excerpt from Orthopedic Surgery
The increasing interest in the surgical treatment of the class of cases which are grouped under the term of Orthopedic Surgery has given rise to a demand for a condensed handbook for the use of students and practitioners embodying a brief statement of the generally accepted opinions as to the nature and treatment of the affections under consideration.
For the sake of brevity the writers have been obliged to omit the presentation and critical discussion of differing views. For these the writers would refer to their previous writings, as well as to the admirable publications of their colleagues. In the present book emphasis is necessarily laid upon such measures of treatment as have been demonstrated to be of value in the clinical work at the Boston Children's Hospital in the past 30 years.
This is not done in any spirit of ignorance or disparagement of the work of others, but in the need of condensed statement. References and bibliographical notes have also been largely omitted for the same reason.
The writers wish, however, to express their indebtedness to the teaching and investigations of others, by which they have been largely influenced in the views which they venture to present.
