The ASCRS Textbook of Colon and Rectal Surgery 3/e

This third edition text provides a completely revised and updated new version of this unique, modern, practical text
that covers the strategic evaluation, specific approaches, and detailed management techniques utilized by expert
colorectal surgeons caring for patients with complex problems뻲hether they result from underlying colorectal disease or
from complications arising from previous surgical therapy. The format follows that of both a 밾ow to?manual as well
as an algorithm-based guide to allow the reader to understand the thought process behind the proposed treatment
strategy. By making use of evidence-based recommendations, each chapter includes not only background information and
diagnostic/therapeutic guidelines, but also provides a narrative by the author on his/her operative technical details
and perioperative 뱓ips and tricks?that they utilize in the management of these complex surgical challenges.
Distinctive to this book, is the reliance on experts in the field including past presidents of the ASCRS, as well as
multiple other national and internationally recognized surgeons, to lend their personal insight into situations where
data may be more sparse, but individual and collective experience is paramount to making sound decisions and thereby
optimizing patient outcomes. The text includes chapters on the assessment of risk and methods utilized to minimize
perioperative complications. In addition, it incorporates sections covering the medical and surgical therapies for
abdominal, pelvic and anorectal disease. Moreover, the technical challenges of managing complications resulting from
the original or subsequent operations is addressed. The underlying focus throughout the text is on providing pragmatic
and understandable solutions that can be readily implemented by surgeons of varying experience to successfully treat
complex colorectal problems. However, it also goes beyond the technical aspects of colorectal surgery and includes
special sections highlighting the essence of a surgeon; covering aspects involving the medical-legal, ethical, and
economic challenges confronting surgeons. Throughout the text, each author provides an ongoing narrative of his/her
individual surgical techniques along with illustrations and diagrams to 뱎ersonally?take the reader through the
crucial steps of the procedure, and key points of patient care inherent to that topic. Additionally, where appropriate,
links to online videos give the reader an up-front look into technical aspects of colorectal surgery.
