Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery provides a short, up-to-date and practical reference guide for 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 covers the breadth of surgery of the liver, biliary system and pancreas, including perioperative care, the biology of hepatobiliary cancers, and transplantation.
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.
