Each concise chapter follows the same format and contains standardized headings: position, incision, exposure and operative technique, and closure. Numerous illustrations detail the procedures, providing clarity at a glance.

  • Each chapter concisely summarizes a specific operation's relevant anatomy · patient position · incision · exposure and operative technique · and closure. 
  • Illustrations demonstrate the key steps of each procedure.
  • Consistent headings and succinct chapters facilitate rapid review. 
  • Coverage includes important procedures such as tracheostomy · breast biopsy · axillary dissection · laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication · hepatectomy · pancreatoduodenectomy · subtotal colectomy and J-pouch reconstruction · carotid endarterectomy · nephrectomy · and many more.

Review:
As a medical student, I found this book to be extremely helpful during my surgery clerkship. I was searching for a book that could help me prepare for operations before I went in the operating room, and this was the only book I found helpful for this purpose. It is straightforward, easy to read, and provides a great deal of pertinent information.
