Main description:

Thyroid Surgery: Principles and Practice will bridge a gap between the huge platform of literature available about thyroid surgery and the practical working reality. The pearls in techniques and surgical procedures are exhaustively detailed with authors' individual experience enriched with quality photographs. This book covers management of large/massive multinodular goiters which are the hallmark of Indian thyroids. However, the emphasis will be more on applying this knowledge to a given patient and would largely revolve around this theme. It aims to provide a take-home message in controversial areas and is a ready reference to all interested in learning the science and craftsmanship of thyroid surgery.
