Summary

Advanced Surgical Recall is a study aid for students and residents who have progressed past their introductory experiences in the discipline of surgery. In addition to providing in-depth coverage of the basic sciences and advanced and subspecialty surgical procedures, this edition is thoroughly illustrated with detailed images of important anatomic landmarks and appropriate surgical techniques. It is a useful resource for studying on rounds, the ABSITE exam and surgery boards. It can also serve as a source of questions for teachers of surgery, particularly for the activity of teaching rounds. The book is written in the popular rapid-fire question and answer format of the Recall series.
