Recent Advances in Surgery 25
The Royal Society of Medicine Press is delighted to publish Recent Advances in Surgery 25, which is part of the successful and well established Recent Advances series (previously published by Churchill Livingstone).
This title is updated annually, covering the latest trends within surgery and reflecting any changes to the professional examinations for surgeons. It provides a comprehensive survey of up-to-date knowledge for candidates of the MRCS/AFRCS examinations, and forms a useful update of general surgery for candidates of the Intercollegiate Examination.
Recent Advances in Surgery 25 focuses on 'General Surgery' and also carries contributions on important topics relevant to the management of all surgical patients, providing in-depth reviews of important advancing areas in surgical subspecialties. This wide scope makes this book an ideal choice for the busy consultant as well as an essential read for students of surgery at all levels.
