MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK

Main description:

This comprehensive book provides detailed practical advice on the diagnosis and surgical management of congenital and acquired conditions in infants and children. Following the great success of the first edition, the new edition has been fully updated to reflect the major developments in the field of the past decade. Advances in prenatal diagnosis, imaging, anaesthesia and intensive care as well as the introduction of new surgical techniques, including minimally invasive surgery and robotic technology that have radically altered surgical conditions are now discussed in the book. In addition new chapters have been added on surgical safety in children, surgical problems of children with disabilities and surgical implications of HIV infection in children among others.

This is a superbly structured and richly illustrated guide aimed at trainees, young pediatric surgeons and general surgeons with interest in pediatric surgery. The book also serves as a handy, quick and easy reference for those making decisions in daily practice.

Pediatric Surgery, Diagnosis and Management features contributions by leading experts in pediatric surgery and pediatric urology who have unique experience in their respective fields.
