General Surgery Board Review 4/e

Softcover - 464 pages 4/e


The Fourth Edition of General Surgery Board Review maintains the core features that have made it one of the most
popular board review books in the field, including questions and answers after each chapter and succinct but detailed
reviews of all topic areas found on the ABSITE. In response to changes in the ABSITE exam, the Fourth Edition has been
clinically refocused. Other Fourth Edition changes include a new chapter on bariatric surgery and coverage of
minimally invasive procedures under the appropriate anatomic region rather than in a separate chapter.












Over 100 sample questions and answers are included to facilitate review and increase understanding

All chapters have been rewritten; new chapters on Minimally Invasive Surgery and Bariatric Surgery

In response to changes in the ABSITE exam, this study guide has been clinically refocused and new questions cover the
most recent developments in surgical science and practice

Provides a current, concise, methodical review of all areas covered in the exams--both general surgery and all surgical
subspecialties
