Description
This text presents information relating to the pancreas, ranging from the historical aspects of the organ and its diseases to the current state of such frontiers as transplantation and the adjunctive therapy of malignancies. New and refined diagnostic procedures and aids are discussed. It is written predominantly by surgeons for surgeons, however there are chapters from a number of non-surgical authorities dealing with issues such as the diagnosis and medical management of pancreatic disease. It aims to provide a comprehensive evaluation and management of patients with pancreatic disease and a detailed description of the role of surgery and the surgical techniques used. The text should be of interest to FRCS candidates.
