Basic Surgical Operations Summary

Basic Surgical Operations by M.E. Foster

This is a small and straightforward guide to approximately 65 common operations which are routinely carried out in elective surgery. Each operation is described in detail, starting with the indications for selecting this form of surgery, advice about setting up in advance, then descriptions in a simple format of the procedure and technique involved, finishing with a list of the key points. This book will be well illustrated with simple line drawings and attractively laid out.
