Schein’s Common Sense Emergency Abdominal Surgery: An Unconventional Book for Trainees and Thinking Surgeons / Edition 3 (PDF)

by
SCHEIN MOSHESCHEIN MOSHE

Emergency abdominal surgery is a battlefield for the surgeon – providing character-building experiences, and opportunities for triumph and disaster. In the third edition of this ‘simple’ book, emergency abdominal surgery is discussed in an informal and no nonsense fashion – as practiced in the ‘trenches’ of the ER and the OR. The preferred approach for a given situation is discussed in context; it has to fulfill certain prerequisites: save life, decrease morbidity, be cost effective and be performed correctly.
