- Summary:
- Women often experience arthritis differently from men for many reasons, ranging from biological and joint anatomy differences to pain perception and psychosocial factors. Evaluation and Management of Hip and Knee Arthritis in Women is the first reference to directly address the unique needs of women in this challenging area, helping improve diagnosis and treatment outcomes for female patients. Offering comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of medical, surgical, and sociological considerations, this title is a resource for orthopaedic surgeons and primary care physicians in training and practice, rheumatologists, adult reconstruction fellows, advanced practice practitioners, and other clinicians who provide care to women with hip and knee osteoarthritis.
