Il testo è stato suddiviso in tre sezioni: -La metodologia che comprende una serie di capitoli con le nozioni fondamentali di semeiotica e sistematica utili a preparare l'esame analogo, a sua volta inserito nei rispettivi corsi integrati delle diverse malattie di apparato. -La patologia sistematica in cui vengono presentate le malattie di interesse chirurgico ivi comprese quelle di patologia vascolare, renale e toracica. Dopo brevi richiami di epidemiologia e fisiopatologia utili a comprendere meglio le diverse presentazioni cliniche delle malattie, segue il ragionamento diagnostico che si conclude con un pratico e aggiornato algoritmo. Sono presentate le indicazioni e i principi generali delle più comuni tecniche chirurgiche con le relative complicanze, la fisiopatologia del paziente operato e i risultati. Il quadro viene completato dalle alternative terapeutiche, sia mediche che parachirurgiche, e da una breve sequenza di casi clinici con modalità di presentazione tipica o atipica che possono aiutare lo studente a inquadrare correttamente le nozioni presentate nella pratica clinica. -La Clinica chirurgica che risulta incentrata su un serie di capitoli aventi come argomento le grandi sindromi cliniche. Queste sono state sviluppate seguendo il concetto dell'apprendimento attivo, che privilegia un approccio per problemi, allo scopo di consentire allo studente il continuo esercizio dell'integrazione, della gestione e dell'applicazione di conoscenze e competenze tra loro correlate.

Surgical Anatomy and Technique: A Pocket Manual, consistently places in the top 10 bestsellers for Springer. The third edition will ensure its continued place on the list. The authors know exactly what makes this book popular: expansive scope; concise descriptions of anatomy and technique; illustrations on nearly every page; and its compact, portable size. The challenge, then, is in the very careful selection of topics and the need to be restrained in spite of the many surgical innovations that beg to be included but that have not yet stood the test of time. Toward that end, the third edition of Surgical Anatomy and Technique includes a limited amount of new material: 3 vascular procedures (abdominal aortic aneurysm, femoropopliteal bypass, and carotid endarterectomy) and 2 gynecologic procedures commonly performed by general surgeons (hysterectomy and oopherectomy). In addition, all of the existing chapters will be updated to reflect current surgical approaches and instrumentation. Third-year medical students, surgical residents and practicing surgeons will find this handbook to be one of their most-frequently-used resources.

"Essential General Surgical Operations" has been specifically produced to meet the needs of the basic surgical trainee who is looking for a concise operative text. Adapted from the best-selling parent title, "General Surgical Operations, Essential General Surgical Operations" includes a straightforward description of all common major operations, together with a brief account of the less common procedures encountered during the early stages of surgical training. The highly-praised features of "General Surgical Operations" have been retained, including the clear, direct writing and illustrative style, and boxes which emphasise and give advice on how to recognise, avoid and correct difficulties. However, the text has been rewritten where necessary to ensure that the needs of the basic trainee are clearly met, and substantially streamlined so that the key operations are covered in the exact level of detail required.

Although sharing the same format and style as "Davidson's Principles and Practice of Medicine", this text is complete in itself, thus enabling the student to appreciate both the medical and surgical implications of diseases encountered in surgical wards.
