Opere di carattere generale

This series of books is aimed at all health science students requiring an introductory, low cost and highly illustrated guide to the clinical specialties. The material is presented in double page spreads. The left-hand page has a synoptic and highly structured text (normally under the following headings: incidence; clinical features; differential diagnosis; management; prognosis). The right-hand page has a selection of four to six clinical photographs. Because of shorter hospital stays and more outpatient treatment, the student is less likely to be able to see these conditions on the ward. The books are a convenient pocket size and are ideal for quick preparation before ward rounds. Each volume also includes self-assessment material ideal for preparation for examinations.

Convenient, portable access to the key information on each surgical topic covered in the encyclopedic, authoritative 17th edition of "Townsend: Sabiston Textbook of Surgery". Reflects all of the latest developments in field, including robotics, endovascular procedures, surgery in pregnant patients, ultrasound for surgeons, surgeon's role in disaster management, and emerging technologies. Excellent review book for ABSITE and board certification examinations. Ideal reference for medical students about to undergo their surgical rotation.

This thoroughly revised new edition provides an algorithmic approach to the evaluation and management of more than 150 common surgical problems. It integrates new chapters on special issues in geriatric surgery, issues in surgical patients with HIV, obesity surgery, hernia, deep vein thrombosis, organ donation, inguinal and scrotal conditions in children, anal fissure, and much more.. Clearly drawn algorithms and concise corresponding text makes this reference easy to use.

Esteemed author Kirby I. Bland, MD, along with 206 international and multidisciplinary specialists, presents state-of-the-art, problem-based approaches for general surgery. These leaders in the field provide in-depth coverage of the diagnosis and management of various common, recurrent, and advanced surgical problems. This new text is designed to enhance decision making and operative planning in general surgery by offering new approaches to various organ-system diseases confronting the practicing general surgeon.

With the recent changes in the health care industry, surgeons face increasing pressure to devote their time to their clinical activities, thus limiting their research efforts. It is essential that young and creative individuals are encouraged to perform research and are given incentives to participate in research under the mentorship of more experienced research investigators. "Surgical Research" is the first book to include all the information necessary for the surgical scientist to perform a research experiment. The editors have assembled outstanding, expert investigators in multiple surgical fields and asked them to describe how they achieve their research accomplishments. In "Surgical Research", these experts in the field have outlined everything involved in preparing and conducting a research project. Some of the topics covered in the book include how to state a research question, how to review the available information, how to write research protocol, how to obtain grant money for the experiment, how to analyze the data, and how to present the findings. Also discussed are the ethics of animal and human experimentation along with the history and philosophy of surgical research. To continue to advance technologies and surgical methods, research must continually be performed. Potentially great discoveries are being missed because would-be researchers do not know where to start or how to conduct research, and therefore do not even try. This book provides prospective researchers with all the basic steps needed to perform a research experiment in the surgical field. No student, resident, or fellow should start a research project without this book and no senior surgical scientist should be without it occupying a prominent position in the library. Key features include: the first complete compendium detailing the process and procedures to perform surgical research; provides details on and compares various methodologies; a 'must have' resource for the surgical resident, fellow, or scientist; and, includes a listing of resources and web sites to help the researcher even further.
