THE ORIGINAL AIM OF THIS WEBSITE IS TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL MATERIAL THAT COULD NOT BE ACCOMMODATED IN THE SECOND EDITION OF POSTGRADUATE ORTHOPAEDICS. WE HAD TO EXTENSIVELY EDIT THE FIRST EDITION OF POSTGRADUATE ORTHOPAEDICS BUT FELT WE HAD MUCH MORE TO OFFER THAN WHAT EVENTUALLY WAS PUBLISHED. WITH THE SECOND EDITION WE WERE DETERMINED TO FIND AN OUTLET FOR ANY ADDITIONAL MATERIAL THAT WE COULD NOT INCLUDE IN THE BOOK. ONE OF THE MOST ATTRACTIVE FEATURES OF POSTGRADUATE ORTHOPAEDICS IS THAT IT CAN BE CARRIED AROUND BY TRAINEES IN THEIR BAG, BEING HANDY TO USE AND DIP INTO FOR QUICK REVISION WHEN ON CALL. WE DID NOT WANT THE SECOND EDITION TO BECOME SO BIG THAT THIS WAS NO LONGER POSSIBLE.

THERE ARE NOW LARGE NUMBERS OF ORTHOPAEDIC WEBSITES SO WE WISHED TO FOCUS THE MATERIAL TOWARDS THE T+O CURRICULUM.TRAINEE FEEDBACK HAD INDICATED THAT THEIR STUDY TIME WAS OFTEN LIMITED AND THEY WANTED TO MAXIMIZE THEIR LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES AND TIME 

AS THE WEBSITE IS FOCUSED ON THE FRCS (TR&ORTH) EXAM IT SEEMED SENSIBLE TO ADD ADDITIONAL FEATURES SUCH AS EXAMINATION DATES AND EXAM RELATED COURSE DETAILS.

THE MCQ/EMI FORMAT HAS BECOME VERY POPULAR WITH TRAINEES SO WE HAVE TRIED TO INCLUDE THESE QUESTIONS IN WITH THE VARIOUS UPDATES.

WE ARE DEDICATION TO ORTHOPAEDIC TEACHING AND TRAINING AND HOPE THAT WITH YOUR HELP THE SITE WILL CONTINUE TO GROW, EVOLVE AND IMPROVE.
