Systematic Approach to Describe Instruments and Operative Procedures in Surgery, Orthopedics, and Anesthesia – Medical Textbook

This book is of great significance for the final year MBBS and postgraduate students of general surgery, orthopedics and anesthesia from the point of view of their examination preparation as it provides the basic knowledge of the questions routinely asked in practical table viva examinations. It provides simple, comprehensive, condensed and pointwise information with illustrative diagrams wherever required. A comprehensive description of the instruments used in general surgery, orthopedics and anesthesia along with their photographs is a prominent feature of this book. Important major and minor general surgical procedures and commonly performed bedside procedures are described in a step-by-step approach. Some of the neglected, but important commonly-asked topics such as different types of surgical suture materials, surgical needles, perurethral, catheters, tubes, drains, intravenous fluids and intravenous cannulas are also covered in this book. The second edition also includes chapters on recent advances in general surgery such as laparoscopic surgery and robotic surgery. Common surgical emergencies presenting to the emergency room are also discussed in the second edition.
