Surgical Clinics of North America
Descripción Surgical Clinics of North America There are many reasons to present an issue of the Surgical Clinics of North America on surgery of the biliary tract, and many of them are contradictory at some level. Nearly all general surgeons perform biliary tract surgery to some degree, and progressively fewer general surgeons seem comfortable with all aspects of biliary surgery. The historic progression of this ‘‘comfort dissociation’’ is fairly easy to trace but, in my opinion, difficult to completely understand. And, sadly, it may reflect a disturbing trend in our industry. There are three main influences that have drastically altered
An atlas of Gynecologic Oncology 4th Edition
Descripción An atlas of Gynecologic Oncology Investigation and Surgery Welcome to the fourth edition of this Atlas. When we looked back to the first edition, instituted 20 years ago now, that text was approximately half the size of this current volume. Much of what is now included would have appeared to be science fiction 20 years ago, but it has become reality. Inevitably, the book gets larger with each expanding edition as the gynecologic oncologist’s repertoire of operations gets progressively larger. There are virtually no operations which fail to remain in the skill set, only ever more to know about

Campbell’s Operative Orthopaedics 12th Edition (4 Volumes)
Descripción Campbell’s Operative Orthopaedics As with every edition of this text, we have been amazed by the multitude of new techniques, new equipment, and new information generated by our orthopaedic colleagues worldwide. The emphasis on less-invasive surgical techniques for everything from hallux valgus correction to spine surgery to total joint arthroplasty has produced a variety of new approaches and new devices. The use of arthroscopy and endoscopy continues to expand its boundaries. We have attempted to include the latest orthopaedic procedures, while retaining many of the classic techniques that remain the “gold standards.” Some of the changes in this edition

Goodman & Gilman’s – The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics 13th Edition
Descripción The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics The first edition of this book appeared in 1941, the product of a collaboration between two friends and professors at Yale, Louis Goodman and Alfred Gilman. Their purpose, stated in the preface to that edition, was to correlate pharmacology with related medical sciences, to reinterpret the actions and uses of drugs in light of advances in medicine and the basic biomedical sciences, to emphasize the applications of pharmacodynamics to therapeutics, and to create a book that would be useful to students of pharmacology and to physicians. We continue to follow these principles in the
Pathophysiology: The Biologic Basis For Disease In Adults And Children 8th Edition
Descripción Pathophysiology Pathophysiology incorporates basic, translational, and clinical research to advance understandings of disease and dysfunction. The study of pathophysiology involves many biomedical sciences and a wide range of research activities. Multiple aspects of cellular physiology are progressing rapidly, generating vast amounts of data to understand. The information expansion involves a greater understanding of the behavior of individual cells, their neighboring microenvironment, and the molecules that not only make up those cells but also communicate with their surroundings. Importantly, the forward movement of biomedical sciences occurs within the context of social, economic, and political processes that determine how disease is
