Publisher Summary 1
Surgeons specialize, of course, but specialized surgery rests on a core of knowledge and experience fundamental to all surgery. This atlas is intended as a concise reference useful to residents and others who need to review before operating. Townsend (U. of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston) and Evers (U. of Kentucky) have brought together a highly illustrated guide to the most common procedures, offering visual instruction in the "how" of surgery. It's intended as a companion to texts such as the one they edited (Sabiston Textbook of Surgery) that focus on physiology, diagnosis, and surgical treatment. An abundance of clear line drawings illustrate essential steps with an emphasis on surgical anatomy. Each procedure is detailed in a step-by-step manner, concluding with three to five "pearls" or pitfalls. Both open and minimally invasive (laparoscopic) techniques are included. The online version of the text is included with purchase of the printed edition. Annotation 漏2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
