Gordon and Nivatvongs' Principles and Practice of Surgery for the Colon Rectum and Anus-4판

The most comprehensive and authoritative reference available today on colorectal surgery

This revised fourth edition of Gordon and Nivatvongs' Principles and Practice of Surgery for the Colon, Rectum, and
Anus edited by David Beck, Steven Wexner, and Janice Rafferty strikes a perfect balance between evidence-based
medicine, in-depth details, and clinical pearls. The result is a highly engaging and authoritative tome in the grand
tradition of Philip Gordon and Santhat Nivatvongs. Building on the widely acclaimed previous editions' reputation for
superb quality and reader-friendliness, the fourth edition includes contributions from an expanded cadre of
internationally known experts.

Significant advances have been made in this field since the third edition was published. The latest diagnostic
modalities are highlighted such as MRI, CT angiography, and enterography. The first section covers essentials such
as anatomy, physiology, diagnosis, colonoscopy, and patient management. Sections two through four discuss a full
spectrum of anorectal diseases, colorectal disorders, trauma, unexpected challenges, and complications. Among the
additions are expanded sections on transanal total mesorectal excision, genetics, personalized medicine, "wait and
watch" principles, outpatient management of anorectal surgery, and large bowel obstruction.
