Editorial Reviews

Reviewer: Matthew S. Marcus, MD (University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine)
Description: This is a quick reference of most of the pivotal studies in sports medicine.
Purpose: The purpose was to sort through the orthopedic sports medicine literature and select the pivotal papers. This is a great objective, to summarize most of the important studies in sports medicine in one book. The authors do provide a concise reference of pivotal studies, but by their own admission, may leave out some that others would feel to be more important. The authors also note that this is not a substitute for reading the actual study, but merely a review of its key findings.
Audience: The audience is those in the field of sports medicine. Medical students and residents can use it for presentations. Practicing surgeons can use it when counseling patients.
Features: The book is divided into sections covering specific joints with a final section on miscellaneous topics. Each section reviews the specific pathology. For example, section II covers the hip, and a chapter in that section covers femoroacetabular impingement. Each chapter succinctly reviews the pivotal papers and, if warranted, lists selected review articles at the end of the chapter. As more studies are published, it becomes difficult to sort out which studies are more important. This book accomplishes this task, with the authors' caveat that their selections may leave out some papers others may feel are more important and include some that others feel are not pivotal. Nonetheless, this is a great effort that provides the majority of essential studies in one concise book.
Assessment: I really enjoyed this book. As a young surgeon, I can use this as a quick reference and review. When I was in training, I would have loved a collection of pivotal papers like this one.
