Tachdjians Pediatric Orthopaedics 6th Edition PDF

This edition of Tachdjian’s Pediatric Orthopaedics is the
fourth that has been written and edited by the staff of the
Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children. As we research
and reevaluate each chapter, we are usually surprised to
see how many things have changed between editions.
For example, in recent years we have seen considerable
growth in the knowledge and practice in the field of
pediatric sports subspecialization. In recognition of this
growth, we have added a new chapter dedicated to pedi-
atric and adolescent sports conditions, which includes
the most recent developments in the management of
concussion. In the scoliosis chapter, exciting new infor-
mation about the rapidly evolving management of early
onset scoliosis has been added, including important non-
operative measures such as serial casting and bracing, as
well as the use of tethering. The field of genetics is con-
tinually expanding, and genetics-related content, which
appears in many of our chapters, has been updated to
reflect current understanding.
Twenty years ago, we took on the challenge to build
on the groundwork laid by Dr. Mirhan Tachdjian in his
two editions. Our goal has been to produce a textbook
that fully encompasses the broad field of pediatric ortho-
paedics. We have based our descriptions on the best avail-
able published knowledge. We have sought to present the
most current evidence from the literature from level 1 to
5 in a succinct and readable format. We have augmented
the discussions with recommendations based on personal
experiences of a top-level clinical faculty. When presenting
controversial topics, we prefer to give the reader the evi-
dence from the different arguments so that the reader can
make a reasoned decision after reviewing the conflicting
evidence. We carefully avoid the “cookbook” approach in
which one puts forth their preferred treatment as gospel.
We continue to insist that our text be comprehensive,
even though a shorter text would be more convenient to
handle. We fully present each topic, include the descrip-
tion of a disorder, and discuss appropriate history and
physical exam, relevant studies, differential diagnosis, and
details of treatment. We believe that it is important to
present the important details of decision making, and we
emphasize the complexity of overall patient care. Our sur-
gical discussions stress proper preoperative planning and
preparation, as well as description of operative details. We
also provide the important postoperative protocols that
are necessary to ensure the best results.
