Fifty-seven new model essays across every subspecialty
We have substantially expanded the Essays library with fifty-seven new long-answer model essays covering many of the most frequently examined topics in the written fellowship papers, now including a full set of musculoskeletal oncology essays (Ewing sarcoma, metastatic bone disease from an unknown primary, osteochondroma and hereditary multiple exostoses, aneurysmal bone cyst, fibrous dysplasia, plasmacytoma and myeloma bone disease, and simple bone cyst). Each is a full, structured answer — introduction, classification, assessment, management and a synthesising conclusion — with a marking scheme, key references, common pitfalls and examiner tips, so you can see exactly how a top-scoring response is built. The new essays span trauma (Monteggia, pilon, tibial plateau, acetabular, femoral and tibial shaft, subtrochanteric and intertrochanteric hip, Galeazzi, olecranon and patella fractures), foot and ankle (talar neck, ankle and syndesmosis, tarsal coalition, fifth-metatarsal/Jones, Morton’s neuroma, navicular stress fracture, subtalar dislocation, turf toe, Freiberg and lesser-toe deformities), upper limb (clavicle, scaphoid, Kienböck, radial head, capitellum, Dupuytren and rotator cuff disease), the cervical spine (odontoid, Jefferson, facet dislocation, os odontoideum, atlantoaxial instability, craniocervical dissociation and cervical radiculopathy), paediatrics (lateral condyle and radial neck fractures, Blount disease, osteogenesis imperfecta, cerebral palsy, limb deficiencies, juvenile osteochondritis dissecans, discoid meniscus and tibial eminence fractures) and basic science (osteoporosis, Paget disease, heterotopic ossification and the spectrum of spondylolisthesis). Find them all under Essays, filterable by subspecialty.
