Surgery Facts and Figures




new MRCS examination (and its equivalents) requires a broad spectrum of knowledge which the candidate is expected to have assimilated at the end of basic surgical training. The examination comprises MCQs, a clinical exam and a viva voce and is an entrance requirement for higher surgical training. At present, there are no revision texts which relate directly to the new examination. This book aims to fill this gap by providing a concise but comprehensive and well illustrated coverage of the key information required by surgeons approaching the end of their basic training. It has been written with specific reference to the new syllabus by surgeons who have recent experience of the examination themselves.
Surgery: Facts and Figures has been written by two surgeons with recent examination experience, is designed to provide information-rich coverage of all aspects of basic surgical training (including orthopaedics and traumatology) and is structured broadly systemically to ensure rapid access to information. The book is fully illustrated throughout, with specially generated line diagrams to aid the understanding of complex topics and to illustrate classic examples to particular conditions. Much use is also made of tables, summary boxes and algorithms to help simplify and summarise important facts.
