Summary

This portable, affordable, user-friendly handbook is a synopsis of the most clinically relevant material in Dr. Corman's gold-standard text, Colon and Rectal Surgery, Fourth Edition . Condensed to less than half the size of the text, the handbook focuses sharply on the diagnosis and management of colorectal diseases. The material has been reformatted into a stepwise approach to the patient: symptoms, testing and diagnosis, preoperative preparation, medical or surgical management, and postoperative care. The handbook includes 100 selected illustrations from the text that aid in diagnosis or demonstrate operative maneuvers.
