Progress in Colorectal Surgery

Progress in Colorectal Surgery covers a variety of topics of current interest to the colorectal specialist. Recognizing that the surgeon does not work in isolation, the book integrates recent progress in imaging techniques for the anal canal and rectum, and will highlight medico-legal considerations. The book discusses key concepts that will assist general surgeons and colorectal consultants in their management of patients with a broad spectrum of anorectal and colonic disorders. It will be particularly useful to trainees approaching the final intercollegiate examination who have expressed a specialist interest in colorectal surgery. With a problem-oriented slant, this book is essential reading for all those with an interest in coloproctology.
