Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice: 8-Volume Set 3rd Edition

by Simon Paterson-Brown (Author), O. James Garden (Author) THE BOOKLANCE

The series – A Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice – is designed to provide trainee surgeons in higher surgical training with an excellent learning and revision
resource, as well as busy practicing surgeons with a regular update in a particular sub-specialty interest. Each volume in the series gives a current and succinct summary of
all the key topics within the specialty and concentrates on recent developments. To meet the increasing interest in evidence-based medicine, authors have cited whenever
available, the meta analysis of randomised controlled trials and identified key references within the text which support evidence -based practice.

· Succinct resource for keeping abreast of new developments in the major surgical sub-specialties
· Rigorously edited and crossed referenced between volumes to reduce repetition/overlap to the absolute minimum
· Meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials included where available
· Key references highlighted in text with a ‘scalpel code’ which reflects the level of evidence for the interventional procedure under discussion.

• Data relating to meta-analysis of randomised controlled clinical trials
• References highlighted in text using a ‘scalpel code’ to indicate the level of evidence for the interventional procedures under discussion.
