It was a pleasure to review and read Dr. Mosca's book on pediatric foot and ankle deformities. The principles that Dr. Mosca reviews and his treatment regimen comprises an almost 30-year experience with pediatric foot and ankle problems. He begins with basic principles and goes through several thoughtful principles that he elucidates in a very excellent fashion. He then reviewed his assessment principles and then in chapter 4 proceeds with management principles. Although these deal with pediatric issues, there are actually things that are very helpful in the treatment protocol for adults as well. In chapters 5 through 8, he deals initially with foot and ankle deformities, then foot malformations and soft tissue procedures and following this, bony procedures.Dr. Mosca's experience in treating both fixed and flexible deformities is well documented and illustrated both with diagrams and photographs as he clearly leads the reader through the treatment of some simple and some very complex deformities.I believe this book would be an important addition to any orthopedic surgeon's library. This encompasses the orthopedic surgeon in training as well as the foot and ankle surgeon in practice. I think this is a must read as it thoughtfully and in a straightforward fashion leads one through the comprehensive treatment plan for these deformities.Michael J. Coughlin, MDBoise, Idaho
