Product Description

Hernia repair is one of the latest recruits in the army of minimally invasive techniques. It is now expected that all trainees will need to learn these laparoscopic techniques, and that all general surgeons will perform them. Instead of discussing each possible alternative, this book reflects a consensus about those techniques that Dr Dunn and his team have developed by treating more than 250 patients. Because an understanding of anatomical relationships and distances is essential in remote surgery for the correct performance of procedures and the avoidance of complications, a main feature of the book is a presentation of anatomy. Moreover, a unique approach of this book is the use of foreshortened anatomical drawings to mimic the view a surgeon sees through the optical lens.
