Significant changes in surgical training have occurred over the past decade, with the inevitable progress towards specialization in the various surgical specialties. The current edition of Essential Surgical Practice: Higher Surgical Training in General Surgery reflects these latest developments with a new structure that accurately mirrors current surgical training. This new edition excludes surgical specialties that are distinct from general surgery, allowing an increased focus on topics of direct relevance to trainees in higher surgical training.

Over 31 chapters, the book provides detailed information on those specialties of which the general surgeon is required to have a working knowledge, and highlights core information for revision and quick reference. Topics include:

Surgical biology and pathology
Surgical craft approaches and technologies
Perioperative care
Cardiovascular, pulmonary and renal pathophysiology
Surgical infections
Interventional radiology
Trauma and head injuries
Disorders of the thyroid and adrenal glands
