Publisher's Synopsis
Thorough and concise, this new state-of-the-art atlas covers all of the cancer procedures practised today with numerous superb illustrations all prepared by Hugh Thomas, a master illustrator. Each chapter begins with detailed anatomical drawings in the same orientation as the operative procedures that are illustrated in that chapter, and concludes with a case that demonstrates uncommon approaches to surgery contributed by an authority in that field. The text features discussions on laparoscopic techniques, including the current role of video-assisted or minimally invasive techniques applicable to surgical oncology.
