Surgical Principles of Minimally Invasive Procedures
The EAES Manual of Endoscopic Surgery provides surgeons and surgical residents with the best practical knowledge currently available on commonly performed minimally invasive abdominal and thoracic procedures. Expert European surgeons share their career-long experience by dissecting operative procedures step by step and highlighting potential technical and anatomical hazards. Authors instruct the reader in a fashion similar to the conversations that take place between master surgeons and their apprentices while scrubbing for surgery. Uniform full color illustrations complete the detailed descriptions of minimally invasive surgeries. In addition to the operative instructions, a key component of the manual is the provision of information on patient selection, choice of operative approach, special needs for minimally invasive procedures, and the early diagnosis and treatment of complications after surgery.
Port-Site and Wound Recurrences in Cancer Surgery
During the past 9 years, reports of 'port-site' deposits following laparoscopic surgery for malignancy, especially laparoscopic resection of colonic cancer, have cast a shadow on the wisdom of the laparoscopic approach in the surgical man agement in patients with cancer. Those reports of port-site deposits, some 90 cases reported in the literature up to 1999, have opened a 'can of worms' and highlighted the scarcity of our knowledge on cancer cell migration from solid tu mors and the factors that underlie their successful implantation in surgical wounds both in the presence and absence of a positive pressure pneumoperito neum. The jury is out even in relation to the effect of the healing sur...
Treatment of Postoperative Complications After Digestive Surgery
Any surgical intervention, elective or acute, may lead to postoperative complications. Moreover, the pertaining approach - laparoscopic or open - will probably not differ in the morbidity rate after surgery. Complications that occur after a surgical intervention can be classified as major or minor. Major complications to the digestive tract after surgery imply in most of cases a leakage of an anastomosis, bleeding in the abdominal cavity or in the tract, the appearance of intraperitoneal abscesses, or surgical site infections and wound dehiscence. These complications, depending on the organ affected, upper GI, HPB tract or colorectal, are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Early s...
Case Studies of Postoperative Complications after Digestive Surgery
The proposal for this book is to offer a systematic description of the most frequent complications occurring in the three parts of the digestive tract: HPB, Upper GI and colorectal tracts. Every complication, from esophageal to the rectum, is described systematically through two or three practical cases as has been treated by actual surgical practices of authors serving as surgeon practitioners. Description of the case, presentation of indication for surgery, type of primary surgical intervention and complication is described textually but also and by means of clinical signs, laboratory tests, radiological studies (CT scans and schematic drawings) and other methods used for diagnosis and treatment. The reader will have access to a practical book in which every current complication can be easily recognized, along with relevant information as guide for an adequate treatment.
Port-site and Wound Recurrences in Cancer Surgery
This is the most talked about subject in laparoscopic surgery today. At every meeting in surgery and oncology at least one or two sections involve this topic. This book allows the reader an organized insight into the different pathogenic mechanisms of port-site recurrences, notably as to where the cells from which the secondary tumour arises come from, how they are dispersed, and how local effects in the port-site wound can favor implantation. Moreover, the book contains practical well illustrated guidelines to show preventive measures applicable by any surgeon. These can reduce substantially the incidence of port-site recurrence, allowing for a safer application of minimally invasive surgery in cancer. All or most surgical units working in this field world wide have contributed to this book.
Living Kidney Donation
This book provides a guide to the principles and practice of living kidney donation. Concise and well-structured chapters discuss the ethics of living kidney donation, medical evaluation of kidney donors, donor nephrectomy surgery, and long-term outcomes of transplantation, along with broader medical issues related to cardiology, surgery, and anesthesia. Living Kidney Donation: A Practical Guide aims to give readers the essential information required for undertaking living kidney donation and is relevant to nephrologists, transplant surgeons, and healthcare professionals working in renal transplantation.
EAES Guidelines for Endoscopic Surgery
This book gathers recommendations of the European Association for Endoscopic Surgery (EAES), as compiled by leading European laparoscopic surgeons. The book offers an overview of current surgical research. All recommendations precisely describe the proven benefit of each surgical procedure and technique. Chapters follow a structured format to allow quick identification of recommendations. This work provides a highly usable and practice-oriented overview of the achievements in laparoscopic surgery throughout the last decade.
The SAGES Manual of Perioperative Care in Minimally Invasive Surgery
The second SAGES (Society of American Gastrointestinal Endoscopic S- geons) manual was intended to be a companion piece for the successful ?rst SAGES manual, edited by Carol Scott-Connor, that was published more than 4 years ago. Originally, the goal was to concentrate on tersely covered or often ignored aspects of the preoperative preparation of the patient and the operating room as well as the postoperative care of patients undergoing minimally in- sive operations. It was also our intention to include a section for each procedure where several different port placement schemes would be presented and brie?y discussed. Unique to this manual, the impact of the patient’s body habitus (short o...
The Genetics and Molecular Biology of Neural Tumors
Collecting an extensive amount of information from thousands of publications by leading investigators in this rapidly developing field, this book provides a convenient and up-to-date one volume source for research in neural tumors of various cellular origins. With over 3,500 references, 110 figures and 120 tables, this volume gathers an astonishing body of knowledge regarding human neural tumors. This book is the first of its kind, encyclopedic and wide-ranging.
