Description
Summary:A good knowledge of anatomy helps surgeons avoid anatomical complications, while masterful technique allows them to proceed rapidly and securely in the operating room. Unlike other pocket-sized surgical texts on the market, Surgical Anatomy and Technique manual provides step-by-step techniques of a wide range of general surgery procedures and reviews the anatomical entities involved in each operation. The book's scope spans the entire body: skin and scalp, neck, breast, abdominal wall and herniae, diaphragm, esophagus, stomach, duodenum, pancreas, small intestines, appendix, colon and anorectum, liver, extrahepatic biliary tract, spleen, adrenal glands, carpal tunnel, and varicosities of the lower extremity. A chapter on laparoscopic surgery is also included. Clear, concise, and generously illustrated, this is a superb quick reference to refresh the memory of the surgical resident before entering the operating room.
