Applied Basic Science for Basic Surgical Training
|
| The requirement of any aspiring
surgeon to have a comprehensive knowledge of the applied basic sciences
remains at the heart of surgical training. All basic surgical trainees are
required to have a thorough comprehension of the scientific principles
behind surgical procedures and patient management. For this Second Edition
many of the chapters have been updated, especially the chapters on
immunology, basic microbiology, the endocrine and locomotor systems and
the breast. An attempt has been made throughout to indicate the clinical
relevance of the facts and the reason for learning them. There are several
new contributors to the author team, all of whom are experts in their
field and many of them are, or have been, experienced examiners at the
various UK Royal Colleges. Although this book has been written to encompass the basic anatomy, physiology and pathology required by the syllabus of the UK Royal Colleges and the Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum Project, it contains the necessary information required for equivalent international examinations and assessments. |

Apley's Concise Orthopaedics and Trauma
|
| This leading introductory textbook of orthopaedics provides medical students, trainee surgeons and other health professionals with an invaluable overview of this important specialty. Praised in previous editions for the systematic approach, balanced content and easy-to-read style, the new edition has been brought fully up to date, with additional detail on anatomy, an improved focus on actual diseases and clinical signs and the introduction of handy 'stop check' points. Over 800 illustrations, many new to this third edition, are arranged as composites to provide a clear, pictorial account of the subject, and can be used in association with the text and as a revision tool. The book remains the first choice for those seeking a brief account of this large and complex subject, and is a natural precursor to the more detailed coverage offered by its larger parent 'Apley's System of Orthopaedics and Fractures' for those wishing to pursue a career in orthopaedics. |

Integrated Basic Surgical Sciences
|
| This book offers a problem-based approach to the basic surgical sciences. It introduces a clinical problem and then addresses its anatomical, physiological and pathological basis. Each section is followed by discussion on how the clinical problem should be managed, including relevant surgical technique. |
