The Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice series provides
surgeons in higher training and those wanting an update with a
practical reference source of the most current information on
recent developments, the latest management issues and operative
procedures in each of the major sub-specialties. The series is
thoroughly referenced and supported by evidence-based data. The
eight volumes comprising the series are written and produced to a
very tight schedule allowing these aspirations to be met. In order
to meet the increasing interest in Evidence-Based Medicine the
authors have cited wherever available the meta-analysis of
randomised controlled trials, systematic literature reviews and
observational studies and have identified key references within the
text that support evidence-based practice. Test sections and
references are highlighted using a 'scalpel code' to
indicate the presence of evidence for the interventional procedures
under discussion.
