  • Title: The role of orthopedist in child abuse and neglect.
    Author: Akbarnia BA, Akbarnia NO.
    Journal: Orthop Clin North Am; 1976 Jul; 7(3):733-42. PubMed ID: 958693.
    Abstract:
    The diagnosis of child abuse is contingent upon having a high index of suspicion. Orthopedic surgeons and other surgical specialists should be more involved in a team approach for prevention, detection and management in cases of child abuse in the hope of breaking the cycle of this mutilating and often fatal tragedy.
