Abstract

First urged in 1863 by means of Marey, stomach compartment syndrome, (ACS), is a constellation of the physiologic sequelae of elevated intra-abdominal strain, (IAP), termed intra-abdominal high blood pressure, (IAH). fresh observations recommend an expanding frequency of this problem in every kind of sufferers, neonates to the aged and in different scientific stipulations, surgical to non-surgical. Even persistent elevations of IAP appear to influence a few of the organ platforms within the physique. regardless of its noticeable scientific implications, no longer adequate cognizance is paid to IAP and IAH. ACS continues to be now not uniformly favored or clinically determined. just a couple of scientific and surgical intensivists think within the idea of IAH and actively test its prevention and remedy. the outcome, as is strongly substantiated through retrospective and potential information, is a winning relief in organ mess ups and mortality. stomach compartment syndrome is a that, until eventually lately, has been poorly favored, regardless of very important strength implications for all organ platforms. fresh curiosity has helped make clear the neighborhood and systemic results of elevated intra-abdominal strain and heightened expertise of the significance of early acceptance and remedy. This booklet, written by way of foreign specialists within the box, follows the 1st international Congress on belly Compartment Syndrome held in Noosa, Australia in December 2004, and offers a great replace in this topical topic. Comprehensively built, this publication covers all key features of the syndrome, from definitions and prognosis to tracking and administration, and is supported all through via acceptable and plentiful illustrations. some of the unsafe results of belly compartment syndrome are reversible with applicable and well timed intervention, and, even if many questions stay unanswered concerning this situation, this e-book presents a welcome and distinctive resource of present details and opinion on stomach compartment syndrome, so as to be useful to all overall healthiness care practitioners, and eventually to their sufferers. This publication covers each point of the belly compartment syndrome, together with prognosis, issues, administration, and prevention. thus far, there's not anything related. this can be a landmark contribution to the literature relating to this .

Abstract

Y2K may have been overrated in terms of its immediate disruptive impact on medical and surgical practice, but it also may have coincidentally marked an era of unprece­ dented change, especially in the domain of surgical spe­ cialty education. Whether one chooses to identify this with training in the beginning of the third year ofmedical school or the completion of the 7th or 8th year of super­ specialty training, many of the same issues and concerns apply. The transition from a scientifically oriented stu­ dent to a real doctor is fraught with hazard and consumes hundreds of hours. The transition into becoming a real doctor is fueled, in many respects, by what most patients expect their doctors to be. This marvelous, concise book is aimed precisely at helping you smoothly bridge the gap between student and practitioner. We have witnessed a decline in surgical career choices, but now a reversal of that decline is occurring with a renewed growth of interest in careers in all surgical specialties. Studies on workforce, or old-fashioned man­ power as it were, continue to show that there is a growing demand for surgical specialty services in America. Depending on where you live, it may be highly specialty oriented or nearer to "old-fashioned" general surgery.

Abstract

Colorectal surgery is a rapidly-evolving surgical field. Innovative procedures, including advanced endoscopy and minimally invasive surgery, are allowing surgeons to offer patients ever-improving treatment options and better surgical outcomes than ever before. Since the last edition of the full volume of Chassin’s Operative Strategies in General Surgery, laparoscopic colon surgery has become the new standard of care in many surgical centers. Thus, for Chassin’s Operative Strategies in Colon and Rectal Surgery, we have added four new, previously unpublished chapters to this new volume: laparoscopic right hemicolectomy and laparoscopic left hemicolectomy; laparoscopic stoma construction and closure; laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection; and total proctocolectomy with end ileostomy. These new chapters provide the reader with the latest techniques in colorectal surgery. In addition to the clear, comprehensive text, these new chapters are enhanced by 52 lavish new illustrations. While the text provides the reader a with clear, step-by-step instructions, the illustrations provide the visual orientation so important to every surgeon's pre-operative preparations. .
