Description
Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers Atlas Of Operative Surgical Oncology by Sabita Jiwnani and Anil Dcruz and Rajendra Badwe
This Atlas of Operative Surgical Oncology from Tata Memorial’s surgical oncology faculty is a valuable contribution to the surgical management of cancer. The well-written text is brief but poignant. Key issues in diagnosis and operative preparation are discussed. The bullet point explanations of the surgical procedure provide a clear description of the operative steps, especially helpful for surgeons who may be experienced in surgery but may not have had the benefit of complete surgical training in cancer surgery. The operative photographs and diagrams are clear, well selected and highly informative. Indications, contraindications and cautions are nicely presented, providing crystal clarity of the key issues that thoughtful surgeons need to properly manage their cancer patients. The value of this document goes beyond its technical scope to touch on key issues in cancer control.
