Rockwood and Matsen's The Shoulder

Rockwood and Matsen's The Shoulder, 6th Edition, is an orthopaedic reference dedicated to the evaluation and management of shoulder disorders. Senior editor Frederick A. Matsen III alongside co-editors Frank A. Cordasco and John W. Sperling coordinates clinical analysis of shoulder function and dysfunction with procedural direction.

The volume covers major clinical presentations and operative solutions, including instability repair, rotator cuff repair, fracture management, infection, and outcome assessment. Chapters address traditional open operations alongside arthroscopic techniques and arthroplasty approaches.

Designed for shoulder surgeons across all levels of practice, the text also serves residents, students, physical therapists, and basic scientists examining shoulder pathology and treatment.
