<p>From the reviews:</p>“This is a compact paperback on surgery of the small bowel derived from a large two-volume comprehensive text on general surgery. … Written for trainees and practitioners, the book is likely to be most helpful to residents during their rotations on GI surgery and surgical oncology. … This is a compact, reasonably priced book with a wealth of detail about current management of a variety of disorders affecting the small intestine (and appendix).” (Carol Scott-Conner, Doody’s Review Service, March, 2012)

Surgery of the Small Bowel provides an illustrative, instructive, and comprehensive review that depicts the rationale of basic operative principles essential to surgical therapy for small bowel disorders. The chapters provide pertinent and concise summaries of how to deal with various small bowel disorders, spanning benign and malignant problems, gastrointestinal bleeding and minimally invasive procedures. Stages of operative approaches with relevant technical considerations are outlined in an easily understandable manner. Complications are reviewed when appropriate for the organ system and problem. The text is illustrated throughout with line drawings and photographs that depict anatomic or technical principles. A concise, handbook-sized reference work, this book is a valuable resource for all general surgeons and residents in training.
