To better reflect its new and expanded content, the
name of the 4th edition of Operative Anatomy has been
changed to Essential Operative Techniques and Anatomy.
In this latest edition, the text's focus on clinically
relevant surgical anatomy will still remain, but it is
now organized by anatomical regions rather than by
procedures. Then to further ensure its relevance as a
valuable reference tool, the number of chapters has been
expanded to 134 and the color art program has also been
increased significantly. Written for surgical residents,
this book provides an up-to-date, easy-to-use reference
for nearly all procedures with which they will face in
their residency. Providing a blend of both surgical
anatomy and a surgical atlas, this edition covers all
Essential Common procedures from the score curriculum as
well as many of the Essential Uncommon procedures such
as urgent operations seen in general surgery practice.
Features: all Essential Common procedures in Score
curriculum; significantly expanded chapter on
thoracoscopic surgery of the esophagus; significantly
expanded chapter on laparoscopic colon resection; and
new chapters on cutaneous infections, I&D, excision,
STSG, ligation, stripping, saphenous vein, loop
ileostomy/closure, operations for small bowel
obstruction (including laparoscopic), and pediatric
umbilical hernia repair.
