 Miller Review of orthopaedics August 25, 2005
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
A good text for an overview of key concepts to know...will need a color atlas for better pictures though. Through coverage of most topics of interest for residents, and a good review for the OITE
Excellent review text, poor proofreading by the editors May 29, 2004

Miller and co. have the unenviable task of compressing all of orthopaedics into a concise text for review. Remarkably so, they have improved on an already invaluable resource for residents and practicing orthopods alike. Given the number of syntax errors and content inconsistencies (see hand section) it appears that they may have rushed this edition to print, thus the "4 stars" ranking. This text still remains the standard to which other review books are compared.
 Review of Orthopaedics (Miller 4th ed) March 21, 2004
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Absolutely outstanding!!! An indispensible review of a very broad and detail oriented topic. Absolutely crucial for the upcoming boards. The updated Sports Medicine chapter was a complete bonus with exquisite attention paid to sports injuries of the upper extremity (an often ignored topic). Congrats to Miller on assembling an excellent team of authors.
 Very disappointed May 13, 2002

I am a chief resident in orthopaedic surgery currently studying for my written board exam. As I have read through this text I have been consistently surprised by the number of blantant mistakes and inaccuracies, especially since this is the SECOND edition. Example: anatomy of ulnar nerve at the wrist p. 544--absosutely wrong; several of the anatomy diagrams have no lables (which were included in the 1st edition); many non-sense sentences such as under discussion of the patella: "Somewhat triangular in shape, the apex of the patella gives rise to the patella, and they fuse sometime between the second and sixth year of life." It reads as though is was written by a medical student instead of "the most reliable experts in the field" as touted on the cover. Not worth the [money].
A nice way to keep up-date(and up-grade) in the wide field.. July 22, 2001

This is a very true and clear way to keep up-date in the wide field of the orthopaedics. Iam a Orthopaedist and these kind of books help me a lot, and make my textbooks alive (I mean Campbell's, Watson-Jones, Apley's , Mercer's and others). Is not a book for junior surgeons its more easier for senior orthopaedist.
