European Instructional Course Lectures

The cover of EICL Volume 8

The European Instructional Course Lectures series is designed to provide a concise summary of the major advances in orthopaedics and traumatology. The series is brought to you by the publishers of The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, in collaboration with the European Federation of National Associations of Orthopaedics and Trauma. Each volume comprises the postgraduate lectures presented at the EFORT two-yearly Congress, commencing with the Paris Congress in 1993.

Originally available only to participants at the Congresses, the lectures have been gathered in book form to provide both trainees and experienced practitioners alike a concise overview of contemporary orthopaedics and trauma.

Each volume provides:

  • Professional opinion from over 20 experts
  • An authoritative and referenced source of practical information
  • Instruction and education in a wide range of specific and relevant topics
  • Clear and relevant illustrations: radiographs, MRI and CT scans, anatomical line drawings, tables and graphs
