Abstract
Surgery: Core principles and Practice is the second edition of this general surgery textbook, providing essential core knowledge in a user-friendly format. Divided into 8 sections, the book begins with the principles of surgery followed by trauma, gastrointestinal surgery, vascular surgery, breast surgery, and endocrine surgery, along with a dedicated section on surgical subspecialties. The content of the book has been completely re-organised from the first edition, and includes new topics on acquiring surgical knowledge, vascular access, principles of endoscopy, interventional radiology, assessment and monitoring of critical illness, aortic emergencies, and immunosuppression. An accompanying website includes the complete text, images and references. Surgery: Core principles and Practice includes nearly 50 case studies on challenging real-life cases. The text is enhanced by over 800 full colour images and illustrations including clinical and diagnostic photographs, and an accompanying website.
