Breast Surgery provides a short, up-to-date and practical reference guide for general surgical trainees and established consultants needing a refresher.
The seventh edition has been edited and fully revised by respected experts in their fields, and provides a full list of current references and relevant resources. It includes recent developments in breast surgery, including axillary surgery, primary medical therapy, risk reducing surgery, gender affirmation surgery and complications of breast surgery.
This volume is part of the Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice series, the pre-eminent reference for trainees in general surgery and those preparing for the FRCS examinations. Each volume summarises key issues within each surgical sub-specialty and provides evidence-based recommendations to support practice.
