Reviews

From the reviews:

“This book provides brief descriptions of about 40 procedures as well as key pitfalls and major complications of each. … It reviews some of the more common pitfalls and highlights key elements of these procedures for those who may have to explain risks/benefits to family members or need a quick refresher on their critical aspects. … This is a well-written, succinct book that gives sophisticated surgeons with some experience a quick review of a wide array of commonly performed procedures.” (Jason Beste, Doody’s Book Reviews, June, 2014)
