This second edition has been thoroughly revised to provide surgery students with a preparatory manual for their exams. It includes new sections on the perioperative journey of a patient, the transplant journey of a patient, bariatric surgery, more detailed discussion on portal hypertension, fluid and electrolyte abnormalities, and much more. Updated guidelines have been summarised, including new definitions of shock, compartment syndromes, tuberculosis management, urological cancers, and sepsis. New short notes have been added in light of advances in the field of surgery. Discusses key topics indirectly related to surgery, such as radiology, anesthesia, and transplantation medicine. Includes easy to reproduce new algorithms, tables, flow charts, and line diagrams. Focuses on topics frequently asked in theory and multiple choice questions. Fulfils all the requirements of the final year student prior to the surgery examinations. Will also help candidates preparing for MRCS to brush through the critical surgical concepts.
