About the Book

The popular series - "A Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice" provides senior surgical trainees with a concise learning and revision source, and the practising surgeon with a regular update in a particular sub-specialty. Each volume in the series gives a current summary of the key topics within the specialty and concentrates on recent developments. As in the previous edition, evidence-based practice is indicated where appropriate - icons are used throughout the books to highlight sections of text and key references which are considered to be associated with reasonable evidence, i.e. are supported by randomized clinical trials, systematic literature reviews, meta-analysis or observational studies.

Review :
"Not only does this text meet a genuine need - it does so in a concise, focused and authoritative manner..The layout is excellent with small 'scalpel codes' throughout the chapters to highlight evidence bases recommendations, all clearly and comprehensively reference at the end of the chapter..Although this text is clearly a very useful revision tool for the emergency surgery section of the intercollegiate exam, it could also rightfully take a place on an emergency theatre bookshelf for consultation in the wee small hours." Star Rating ***** Dominc Slade, Ann R Coll Surg Engl 2007; 89; 740-742
