Product Description

Product Description
This book of 100 genuine surgical case histories should be an invaluable aid to study for the trainee surgeon and for revision for the clinical examination of the FRCS. Each history is followed by questions and detailed discussion of the case. The level of difficulty increases through the book to give the reader a sense of progression. However, it is not simply a revision aid for candidates preparing for the FRCS examinations. The processes of formulating a differential diagnosis, deciding on a plan of management, assessing the most appropriate timing for surgical intervention, the correct operative procedure, and managing postoperative problems, all involve for the surgeon a pattern of thought and decision-making quite different from that involved in managing a general medical case. The format of this book is designed to assist the acquisition of surgical thinking. Clinical problems in all the major specialties are presented in a style that is based on the FRCS clinical examination. The cases are genuine, and the discussion necessarily didactic; and the authors expect that readers will frequently disagree with the chosen line of management. This book has been prepared with the new style of FRCS examinations in mind, so that readers have an opportunity to test their specialist knowledge of difficult questions within their chosen subject and also to learn the principles of management of problems in other specialties in an easily digestible form. The cases are suitable for casual reading, for individual study, or as a basis for discussion in FRCS tutorial groups.
