Top Knife - Asher Hirshberg

Operative trauma surgery is a key element of surgical training world-wide but many surgical trainees have only limited exposure to it throughout their training. The aim of this book is to provide a detailed technical guide for trauma surgery by two experienced surgical educators who are experts in the field. The original concept behind this text (compared to other operative surgery texts) is a special emphasis on intra-operative judgement decision-making and thought processes as well as technical 'tips and tricks'. The book will be generously illustrated with black-and-white line drawings but will NOT be a surgical atlas because there will not be a step-by-step sequence of illustrations for each procedure. The illustrations will be incorporated into the text rather than appearing on separate pages. As such the book will be an 'operative surgery' book along the lines of such British classics as Peter Jones' 'Emergency Abdominal Surgery' Hugh Dudley's editions of 'Hamilton Bailey's Emergency Surgery' and Keen's 'Operative Surgery and Management'.
